Hi I’m Walaa. Billboard and Tres Generaciones Tequila are pairing up to bring to you the Get Up Anthems of select cities, and our next stop is Atlanta, Georgia, home of the peach tree and trap music. Get Up Anthems represent songs of grit and perseverance that have motivated, captivated and inspired their city. So what better way than to hear from Atlanteans themselves on what songs they feel deserve to be on that list? So let’s hear what they have to say. What song do you think absolutely, undeniably deserves to be on this list?

Guest 1: 

Well, gotta be on there is Lil Baby “Freestyle.” You’re in the A, that’s the anthem. 

Guest 2: 

“March Madness” by Future. 

Walaa Elsddig:

Why? 

Guest 2: 

The undergrad days, the club was going up level with that song for real.

Walaa Elsddig:

What song do you feel like deserves to be on the Get Up Anthem soundtrack for Atlanta?

Guest 3:

T.I. “u don’t know me,” for sure. You plan today is gonna have that same vibe.

Guest 4:

I would say “March Madness” by Future, it’s still a banger, like everybody’s always up, lit, turnt up. 

Guest 5:

Outkast’s ‘Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik,’ they’re from Atlanta, they paved the way for a lot of artists. 

Walaa Elsddig:
