Tallahassee artists Bachi and Lil Goat get emotional with their new collaborative single “Heart On Fire” this week. The upbeat yet profoundly honest track features vocals from Billboard-charting songwriter Angela Moss Poole on an invigorating chorus that’s not to go unnoticed. The duo have not officially released music together prior to now, but their inaugural track undoubtedly marks a long future of collaborations between the Florida rappers.
Lil Goat, per his YouTube channel with nearly half a million subscribers, is a “star in the making.” Starting his musical journey in Tallahassee in 2017, he gained notoriety by posting freestyles, spoken word poetry, and storytelling videos online. Lil Goat’s fanbase has consistently appreciated the narrative of his lyrics, which revolve around difficult topics like depression, relationships, and suicide. “Heart On Fire” drops ahead of Lil Goat’s debut studio album, which is slated to release later this year.
Fellow Tallahassee native Bachi has been a breakout star in the Florida rap scene over the last few years, with his tracks appearing on media outlets like ESPN Music, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, the NBA 2K21 soundtrack, and more. Bachi’s constant positivity has recently earned him co-signs from other major artists like Gucci Mane and Madeintyo, and his critical acclaim is unlikely to stop anytime soon. This single is coming toward the end of a long and successful year for Bachi, who released memorable tracks like “Hot,” “Verified (feat. spill.rah),” and “Billy Mays” throughout 2021.

Quotable Lyrics (Bachi):
Born in the dirty south
But I took a clean approach
Mama told me watch my mouth
And I do just what I’m told
(Lil Goat)
Heart of fire, I don’t know if I can love again
I just want my downtime to be right where my brothers stand
If that don’t work then we comin’ up with some other plan
‘Cause if my brother don’t, I know for certain that my mother can
