Who is Pluto?

The young artist has strong ties to Atlanta, a city known for having brought the world numerous high-wattage zeitgeist-shifters.

Then there's ATLiens like Future, who scored multiple No. 1 albums last year, and also goes by the nickname Pluto.

In her Instagram bio, Pluto refers to herself as “Big PLUTO, a.k.a. Ms. Pinky.”

Musically, Pluto's rap style is reminiscent of Sexyy Red, a rapper who has made waves for her unfiltered lyrics about sex.

As of this writing, the song was in the No. 2 spot on Spotify's Viral 50 - USA chart. Credited with production are Zaytoven, Mikey, and Jai.

On the song, Pluto spits blunt bars about men and relationships rapping lyrics like, "He want me bad, heard he a duck, can't get no coochie out the queen, put some Lulu on this butt (Lululemon)."

On the chorus she raps, "We forever gettin' money, you forever gon' be mad."
