Released in January 2025, "Tweaker" quickly became a cultural phenomenon, climbing to #29 on the Billboard Hot 100 and gaining millions of streams on Spotify and views on YouTube. GELO, who transitioned from basketball to music, signed a substantial $13 million deal with Def Jam while maintaining ownership of Born2Ball Music Group. The remix, dropped on February 7, 2025, features Lil Wayne, whose verse GELO compares to Wayne's iconic Dedication mixtape era, marking a significant endorsement for GELO's burgeoning music career.

Analytic Dreamz discusses the cultural impact, including its adoption in sports locker rooms and its viral spread, alongside GELO's upcoming plans which include performing at Rolling Loud California and releasing new music like "Can You Please?". The segment also touches on the strategic timing of this remix with Lil Wayne announcing his own album, "Tha Carter VI", showcasing how GELO is leveraging high-profile collaborations to cement his place in the music industry.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
