21 Savage was named one of the most influential people on the TIME 100 list.

This was announced on Wednesday, April 17, marking him as the only representative of hip-hop on this prestigious list. Each person on the list has someone vouch for them.

Burna Boy, a fellow singer, wrote an excerpt for TIME expressing how fitting this title was for 21 Savage. Moreover, Burna Boy endorsed 21 Savage’s significance, connecting deeply with the rapper’s narrative.

He stated, “I trust my gut when it comes to my music and collaborations, and I find myself naturally drawn to artists like 21 Savage — those who remain grounded in their convictions and consistently defy the constraints imposed upon them. Like 21, I know what it’s like to rise above challenging beginnings, and it makes his success all that much more remarkable.”
