This project not only garnered critical acclaim but also earned him placements on numerous "Artist to Watch" lists for 2023, including Rolling Stone, Complex, Billboard, Pigeons & Planes, Alt Press, and more.

Beyond music Lonely has made significant strides by teaming up with designer, Matthew Williams (formerly of Givenchy) to curate an exclusive merch collection, graced two iconic Marc Jacobs campaigns, starred in a Bose campaign, and even lunched his own limited edition Vitamin Water flavors, called “Look Killa Juice.” His bold ventures across multiple creative domains not only showcased his versatility but also cemented his status as a true innovator. This year, the Opium artist has continued to stay active. He collaborated with producer, Southside and label-mate Ken Carson on “President,” and joined forces with Atlanta's own, Quavo on “Potato Loaded.” He kicked off the summer with an electrifying performance at Coachella and took the stage in Chicago at Lyrical Lemonades, Summer Smash.
