Songfacts®:

  • "All of Me" dives deep into 21 Savage's journey, with real talk about the events that shaped him as a person. He spills about his turbulent upbringing and the constant battle between good and evil. The chorus is a raw canvas of the harsh truths, losses, and betrayals life dealt him.
  • 21 Savage narrates his tales of his formative years with a laid-back flow backed by a soulful sample of Rose Royce's 1977 hit "Wishing On A Star."
  • Spiff Sinatra created the beat with additional production from Isaiah Brown, Jared Brown, and Noc.
  • "This Is Me" is the second track on 21 Savage's third studio album, American Dream, released on January 12, 2024. The 15-track album takes the listener through Savage's journey to becoming a lawful US resident, which kicked off when he got outed as an immigrant in 2019. Born in London, the rapper emigrated to the States with his mother when he was 7.
  • The song first surfaced four days ahead of the album's release, soundtracking the trailer for 21 Savage's supposed biopic American Dream: The 21 Savage Story.

    The rapper later revealed the trailer was just a parody and the bogus film won't be materializing - it was just a marketing play for his American Dream album. The promotion paid off: American Dream topped the Billboard 200.
