Atlanta-based rapper and cryptocurrency investor
Money Man followed Long Money, his 2019 collaboration with
Peewee Longway, with an eight-song mixtape titled
Epidemic. The release's cover displays
Money Man sporting a face mask and walking through a dystopian wasteland, alluding to the COVID-19 outbreak of early 2020, and while his lyrics aren't explicitly focused on the pandemic, the songs do take on an eerie, foreboding tone.
Epidemic debuted at number 121 on the Billboard 200 following its March 2020 release.
