0Rae Sremmurd Celebrate 10th Anniversary of “ScremmLife” With Limited-Edition Vinyl
Influential multiplatinum duo Rae Sremmurd celebrate the 10th anniversary of their double-platinum breakout debut LP, SremmLife [EarDrummers/ In
SremmLife initially arrived on January 6, 2015, going on to take the culture by storm and spawning a succession of smashes in the process. Upon release, it bowed in the Top 5 of the Billboard 200. However, its influence has only grown over the ensuing decade powered up by the 7x-Platinum “No Type,” 5x-Platinum“Come Get Her,” 4x-Platinum “This Could Be Us,” 3x-Platinum “No Flex Zone,” 3x-Platinum “Throw Sum Mo” [feat. Nicki Minaj & Young Thug], and Gold-certified “My X” and “Up Like Trump.”
With the bulk of its production helmed by Mike WiLL Made-It [Kendrick Lamar, Beyoncé] and his EarDrummers production team (A Pluss, Marz), the album also notably includes guest spots from Big Sean on “YNO” and Jace of Two-9 on ”Unlock The Swag.” Additional production contributions come from Swae Lee on “No Type,” Sonny Digital, Young Chop, Soundz and Honorable C.N.O.T.E.
Check out the full tracklisting below.
The Inglewood-born and Mississippi-raised brothers—Swae Lee and Slim Jxmmi—ignited a stratospheric rise in the record’s wake. It’s no wonder Forbes touted them on its “30 Under 30” for 2016, and Billboard retrospectively pegged them as one of the “50 Greatest Rap Groups of All Time.”
The aftershocks of SremmLife’s impact reverberate through hip-hop to this day. Beyond landing on 2015 year-end lists from Pitchfork, Stereogum, Los Angeles Times, Complex, and more, Rolling Stone cited it as one of “The 200 Greatest Hip-Hop Albums of All Time,” promising, “the ebullience of their debut embodies pure pop-rap joy like few records in recent memory.” Not to mention, it also paved the way for SremmLife 2 [2016], SR3MM [2018], and Sremm 4 Life [2023].
Stay tuned for more from Rae Sremmurd in 2025.
10 years later, and it’s still SremmLife forever.
