Anycia ft. Quavo – “Put Up”

Anycia releases “Put Up” single with Quavo
Atlanta’s rap scene just got a serious jolt of energy—and romance. Anycia, one of ATL’s most exciting voices, has released her latest single, “Put Up”, Produced by EJ Stellar, Bboybeatz, and Rickkromero and featuring none other than Quavo, and the track is already being hailed as one of the hottest summer drops of 2025.
After teasing the song for weeks across Instagram and TikTok, “Put Up” finally arrived and didn’t disappoint. It’s vibrant, confident, and blends two essential Atlanta energies—Anycia’s unapologetic delivery and Quavo’s signature smoothness.
More than just a radio-friendly hit, “Put Up” sets the tone for what’s coming next: Anycia’s highly anticipated mixtape, Grady Baby—a full-length project hosted by the legendary DJ Drama.
Breaking Down the Vibe of “Put Up”
“Put Up” hits the sweet spot between flirtation and fire. The track opens with a bold hook from Anycia, showcasing her ability to take command without being overpowering. Her lyrics touch on themes of trust, loyalty, and being desired—not in a submissive way, but with full agency.
The beat pulses with ATL energy:
- 808s slap hard, driving the song forward
- Crisp hi-hats give it bounce
- Melodic undertones soften the edges, perfect for both club spins and summer car rides
Quavo enters mid-track with his trademark laid-back flow. He plays off Anycia’s energy effortlessly, and the chemistry feels organic—not forced. It’s rare that a collab strikes a perfect balance, but “Put Up” does exactly that.
Fans have already started calling it an “ATL anthem for situationships,” and they’re not wrong.
“Grady Baby” Mixtape: More Than Just a Title
Named after Atlanta’s iconic Grady Memorial Hospital, where Anycia was born, the “Grady Baby” mixtape is a statement of identity. It’s not just about place—it’s about pride, survival, and legacy.
Anycia isn’t just borrowing Atlanta’s name for credibility—she embodies it. Everything from her delivery to her beats screams ATL. With DJ Drama hosting the mixtape, this project instantly gains historical weight. Drama’s Gangsta Grillz series helped launch or cement legends. For him to co-sign Anycia in this way shows how real her movement is.
The mixtape will include:
- “Put Up” feat. Quavo
- “Never Need” feat. GloRilla and Karrahbooo
- Solo version of “Never Need”
- “No Scrub”, a playful yet sharp reinterpretation of the classic TLC hit
But the real excitement comes from what hasn’t been revealed. If the energy of “Put Up” is any indicator, Grady Baby could become the definitive summer release out of the South.
The Power of “Put Up” in Her Catalog
“Put Up” feels like a turning point for Anycia—not just another song, but a strategic move. Here’s why it stands out in her growing catalog:
- Mainstream Reach
With Quavo on the track, “Put Up” is one of Anycia’s most accessible single yet. It’s climbing playlists quickly and has strong viral potential. - Artistic Growth
Compared to earlier songs like “Never Need,” this track showcases more versatility. She leans into melody, without losing her edge. - Cohesion with Grady Baby
The themes in “Put Up”—love, loyalty, and self-worth—tie directly into what we expect from Grady Baby. It’s not just a one-off; it’s part of a story.
What to Expect From the Grady Baby Mixtape
If “Put Up” is the appetizer, Grady Baby is the full course. With the backing of DJ Drama and her unique sonic identity, this mixtape could shift the conversation around who’s really running the new wave in Atlanta.
Here’s what to look forward to:
- Authentic storytelling – Expect more lyrics rooted in personal experience and neighborhood pride
- Dynamic features – She’s shown she can collaborate well. We may see more voices from the ATL underground or surprise names from outside the city.
- Southern production – If “Put Up” is a sonic guide, the rest of the tape will likely feature layered trap beats, sample flips, and plenty of bounce.
And maybe most importantly: this project will introduce Anycia to a national audience without her losing her local core.
