“Drowning” became an instant hit upon its release on March 10, with A Boogie’s hooks becoming one of this year’s hottest as he rap-sings “Wrist so icy, wonder why she like me, bitch I’m drownin’/In water, I just bought a Cuban, dipped it in a fountain/Everywhere that I go it’s a light show, I’m surrounded/Bust down, bust down, bust down, bust down, bust down, bitch I’m drownin’.” The single went gold on June 6, selling well over one million units as of July 27, and peaked at No. 41 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. A Boogie was awarded three other platinum plaques in the last year for his solo hits “Timeless,” “Jungle,” and “My Shit.”
