Lil Tjay shares new track “Beat the Odds”.
A couple of months ago, Lil Tjay was shot 7 times in New Jersey, and the rapper had been recovering from the incident. Today, he makes his grand return with a new single “Beat the Odds”, where he raps about his past life and mentions family members who have been there for him since his young days and more. The song is produced by KXVI, Desirez beats & KBeaZy, and it arrives with a music video which features clips of him recovering in the hospital.

“They be like “Tjay, why do you move around with all them f**kin’ guns?” / I just tell them “That’s ’cause I don’t wanna die” / And trust me I don’t lie, can’t f**k up, I’m a star right now / If I weren’t quick to blow, I would be in the stars right now,” he raps.
After providing just brief updates on his well-being, Tjay broke his quiet earlier this week. He hinted that the latest release was forthcoming, but it was obvious that he wasn’t kidding. “Hey what’s going on y’all, it’s your boy Tjay, man,” he told fans in a post on social media. “I’m just checking in with y’all. I just wanna say, thanks for the love, thanks for the support. I been looking at the DMS, the comments and everything else, and I feel love. Seven shots, it was tough, you know? Most people don’t survive it, but I’m here. Here for a reason, and new music coming soon. We gonna come back stronger than ever. Love y’all.”
