A rap star who's blowing up on the music scene isn't forgetting his hometown of Fayetteville.
NEW STREAMERS, INCLUDING DISNEY PLUS, PARAMOUNT PLUS, AND NBC'S PEACOCK SERVICE. >>> A FAYETTEVILLE RAPPER BLOWING UP ON THE MUSIC SCENE IS NOT FORGETTING ABOUT HIS HOMETOWN. HIS SINGLE HAS MORE THAN 33 MILLION VIEWS ON YOUTUBE. REPORTER GILBERT HAYES SPENT THE AFTERNOON WITH HIM AS HE SHOT HIS NEW VIDEO, SURROUNDED VERY CLOSELY BY HOMETOWN FANS, SOME, GILBERT, WEARING MASKS, SOME NOT. >> Reporter: YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT. SOCIAL DISTANCING OUT THE WINDOW HERE. WE SAW IT ON THE FIELD AT WESTOVER RECREATION CENTER. HE BEGAN HIS CAREER WHEN HE WAS 14 YEARS OLD. HE STARTED SINGING WHEN HIS MOM AND GRANDMOTHER PUT HIM IN FRONT OF THE CONGREGATION AT CHURCH. HE DID IT BETTER THAN I DID. HE CAME OUT HERE AGE 28, AND HE BLESSED HIS FANS, LETTING THEM BE A PART OF HIS NEW VIDEO "TRENCHES." . IF YOU'RE A RAP FAN AND DON'T KNOW HIS NAME, YOU'RE ABOUT TO. HE IS FROM FAYETTEVILLE. HE'S BLOWING UP, AND GOING BACK TO HUSBAND HOMETOWN, WITH OTHER RAPPERS FOLLOWING IN HIS FOOT STEPS. >> I'M THE ONLY ONE. THERE'S LIKE 40,000 OF US. >> Reporter: ONE OF THOSE LOCAL GROUPS HOPING THEY MAKE IT BIG NEC TIME IS SU 5. >> YES. SO WE ARE R AND B SINGERS WITH THE,BF LEVEL, WHICH IS MORAY. WE REPRESENT THEM, THE CITY. WE KNOW. >> Reporter: TODAY'S VIDEO SHOOT WAS LIKE A BLOCK PARTY. HE WANTED TO BRING THE COMMUNITY TOGETHER IN A FUN WAY, BLOW UPS FOR THE KIDS, BURGERS FOR THE GROWN UPS. >> THAT'S WHAT THE VIDEO WAS ALL ABOUT, TO BRING THE COMMUNITY TOGETHER. THEY GATHERED AROUND HIM AS HE SHOT THE VIDEO FOR "TRENCHES." SOME WORE MASKS, SOME DID NOT. IN MANY SCENES, SOCIAL DISTANCING WAS OUT THE WINDOW. HOWEVER FOR RAY HIM, HE SAID DOWN-PLAYING THE PANDEMIC, IT'S AFFECTED EVERYONE. >> IT'S AFFECTED EVERYBODY, WHETHER IT BE YOUR REGULAR JOB, OR MY PROFESSION. THE PANDEMIC IS SERIOUS. HOPEFULLY THIS LITTLE VACCINE THEY'VE GOT CAN CURE IT, BUT IF IT'S NOT, WE HAVE TO KEEP TRYING. >> Reporter: NOW, MORAY SAYS THAT NEW SINGLE "TRENCH THE" SO IS GOING TO DROP SOMETIME NEXT WEEK. HE SAYS, GILBERT, BEFORE TELEVISION, YOU WERE A DJ. ON MY NEXT VIDEO YOU CAN BE THE GUEST DJ. I SAID, "NO. I WANT TO BE A RAPPER. RAPPING THAT BODY YOU CAN'T RESIST UNTIL GILBERT MAKES IT GO LIKE THIS. BOOM, DROP THE MUC. WE OUT HERE, IT OOPS FRAYED." . >> GILBERT, GO AHEAD ON HOME. YOU HAD A LONG WEEK. I HAVE TO SAY, GILBERT, YOU NEED TO PUT, "WE KNOW YOU BABE" IN YOUR BUO ON ANY SOCIAL MEDIA. THAT WAS FANTASTIC. . >> I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY.
