Young Costamado & TDott Woo Sample Black Rob Classic for New Brooklyn Drill Anthem - "Like Woo"
Brooklyn Drill has been taking over the streets, in and outside of New York these past couple of months. Today, Young Costamado and rising social media sensation TDott Woo drop off their new KSR Records release, “Like Woo”. Infusing the iconic organ riff from Black Rob’s “Whoa!” with the fresh energy of the Brooklyn Drill sound, this song is guaranteed to become New York City’s next anthem and solidify these two artists as the next to watch in the rap game.
Both repping ‘The Flossy,’ Brooklyn’s Canarsie neighborhood, TDott Woo and Young Costamado have established a friendship that makes for a perfect recording partnership, each complementing the other with their unique delivery and slightly different interpretation of what their crew refers to as the Woo Lifestyle. Their bond has become so strong that they are working on a joint mixtape, ‘Kobe & Shaq’ due out later this month. But they each came into the rap game very differently.
While he has already emerged as one of the stars of the Brooklyn Drill movement, “Like Woo” is actually TDott Woo’s very first offering as a rapper. A native of Canarsie, he was first introduced to fans through a scene-stealing appearance in one of Pop Smoke’s earliest videos, “MPR.” The fan reaction to TDott Woo’s dance moves led to an appearance in the late rapper’s first national hit, “Welcome To The Party.”
With TDott Woo’s “Aye” Dance becoming just as popular as the song itself, it was only a matter of time before fans sought him out. By the time he introduced the “Woo Slide” in Fivio Foreign’s “Big Drip” video, TDott had an established following of his own. One that has constantly asked him to bring his unique energy and vibrant personality into the musical realm. Bolstered by Fivio and Pop’s early support, TDott got to work, honing his skills, learning the game and making sure that once he stepped onto the rap scene, it would be clear and undeniable that he is here to stay.
Young Costamado, on the otherhand, has spent the past year building up his resume and amassing an impressive discography as he steps to the forefront of the Brooklyn Drill movement. His own singles, including the Fivio Foreign - assisted “Slide” have generated over 1.5M YouTube views. Costamado was also featured on Fetty Luchiano’s hit single “Woo Walk,” which has garnered over 3M views and close to a million streams on Spotify alone.
In addition to the joint project, TDott Woo is also working on his solo debut and aims to offer fans his first solo single before the end of the year. Young Costamado is currently working on the follow-up to the street favorite Woodemic, released earlier this year.
