Carolina native and Stunna 4 Vegas (Billion Dollar Baby/Interscope) frequent collaborator GetRichZay connects with BabyDrill for "Convos With The Dead." The release follows up the pair's 2023 collaboration "Like Us" and finds them trading sinister bars detailing the harsh reality of street life.

Born Isaiah Barnette, GRZ is a North Carolina-based Hip-Hop artist who uses an intermittently guttural delivery and lyrics that echo the blunt-force trauma of the streets. Though he began rapping around 2016 he didnโ€™t release his first mixtape, Forever Solid, until 2019 along with producer NoisyJay. A storyteller through and through, his life was almost cut short after he was shot in the face during a robbery gone wrong. The near-death experience only further pushed Zay to pursue his passion and resulted in an even more elevated work ethic.
