There aren't many rappers like Mario Judah in hip-hop and it led him have this cult-like following around the heat of the COVID-19 pandemic. His unmistakable and off-beat sung/rap delivery remains one of the most unique the genre has ever seen. Sometimes, his music comes off as a bit novelty and is extremely niche as a result. Overall, he's not a rapper that everyone takes immensely seriously. But his incredibly dark and violent lyricism and one-of-one approach is why he has so much charm to begin with. However, despite some success early into his career, every year since 2021 has not been the same. His production slowed down to just four singles from '21-2022. Then, last year he would drop his first-ever tape, Endure.
Then, Mario Judah went completely silent from there. Even his social media is trimmed down to just one post. His self-removal from the internet honestly went unnoticed by many. However, just yesterday, March 3, he dropped a new single out of nowhere. "Love You Anymore" is much softer and toned-down version of his heavy metal-esque style. Overall, it's kind of like an emo rap cut as he sings and raps about a failed relationship that isn't worth saving anymore.

Who Is Mario Judah?
"Your smile once lit my world so bright / Now it's just a fading, little light / I tried to hold onto you through the night / But lost the feeling, try as I might." He adds on the chorus, "I don't love you anymore, oh / Though I wish I could restore, oh / What we had in the days before, oh / Now it's gone forever more, oh." It's a solid track and one that's been getting support and encouragement from fans and his rap peers.
However, what some cannot unsee is how much weight Mario Judah has lost. "Kept the hair but lost the weight," one X user writes. "Wait. THIS SAME GUY," another adds. Others were a bit harsher. "Ozempic hitting the streets as hard as crack in the 80’s." Regardless of how Mario slimmed down, we are happy to see him back and active and taking care of himself. For those who don't the basics about him, he was born in Flint Michigan in 1999 and was raised in Georgia. That's where he found most of his musical inspiration, borrowing elements from the Migos, Young Thug, and more. He's known for tracks such as "Die Very Rough" and "Bih Yah."
