21 Savage "WTF GOIN": Who Is Belly Gang Kushington?

Atlanta's hottest new name in trap links with a Slaughter Gang legend — and the momentum keeps building.

Belly Gang Kushington has been on an absolute tear, and "WTF GOIN" featuring 21 Savage is the latest confirmation that his rise isn't slowing down anytime soon.


Born Victor Thomas and hailing from Atlanta, Georgia, Belly Gang Kushington began his rap career in 2020 and signed to Love Renaissance in 2024. After releasing his debut studio album The Streets Is Yours in April 2025, he had his mainstream breakout with his single "Friend Do (Remix)" featuring YKNiece. That track centers around twerking and drug dealing, and by the end of 2025 had become the most played song at strip clubs in Atlanta — a genuine cultural moment that put his name on the map nationally.


The momentum hasn't stopped. In March 2026, Thomas was named Billboard's Hip-Hop Rookie of the Month, and in May he was nominated for the BET Award for Best New Artist. "WTF GOIN" arrives as another major co-sign in his growing résumé — and pairing with 21 Savage, one of trap's most respected and consistent voices, only raises the stakes.
