21 Savage

Atlanta-by-way-of-London's Sha Yaa Bin Abraham-Joseph — the British-passport-holding rapper who became one of the defining voices of late-2010s trap and made a virtue of monotone menace. 'Savage Mode' with Metro Boomin (2016) was one of the cleanest producer-rapper marriages in modern rap; 'I Am > I Was' debuted at #1; 'Savage Mode II' (2020) somehow improved on the formula with Morgan Freeman as narrator. Then the unlikely-and-great 'Her Loss' with Drake, the immigration-detention scare, the philanthropy, the financial-literacy classes for kids in his old neighborhood. Quiet, unbothered, prolific, and easily underrated as a writer.
