Jack Harlow was definitely one of the biggest breakout artists of 2020. The Louisville rapper first saw massive success in January with the release of his "What's Poppin" single. That made a lot of noise in the spring and it led to a star-studded remix which included DaBaby, Tory Lanez, and Lil Wayne. Harlow's debut studio album, "That's What They All Say," also did very well last winter. Now, his momentum is rolling over to 2021 in a major way. 

Harlow took to his social media feeds on Sunday to announce that he will be performing on "Saturday Night Live" on March 27. The "Whats Poppin" rapper expressed how grateful he is for this opportunity and how he first loved the show when he saw Kanye West on SNL performing "Love Lockdown"in 2008.

"Saturday Night Live. March 27th. I grew up watching SNL with my family every weekend. I vividly remember seeing Kanye perform Love Lockdown and Heartless in 2008. Thank you for making this happen. Another dream come true."

Fans have since expressed their excitement for Harlow's upcoming SNL appearance as they are proud of his growth over the past year. Some of the records that they want to see him perform is What's Poppin and  "Tyler Herro," the other single from his album which is named after the Miami Heat star. What's Poppin has since been certified 4x platinum by the RIAA in the US and Tyler Herro currently stands at gold status. Both records bring solid energy and are be perfect for SNL.

It's also safe to say that Harlow met expectations for his debut studio album, "That's What They All Say," in December. This project debuted at No. 5 on the Billboard 200 chart. The album contained 15 tracks in total with other appearances from Adam Levine, Chris Brown, Big Sean, the late Louisville native, Static Major, Bryson Tiller, and more. Harlow also earned production from top producers such as JetsonMade, Hit-Boy, Boi 1-da, and Sony Digital. The success of "That's What They All Say" capped off an epic year for Harlow.

Harlow also made headlines last summer for a very interesting reason. He appeared at the world famous Magic City strip club in Atlanta with Los Angeles Clippers star, Lou Williams. Williams was in town for a funeral and ended up stopping by the club with Harlow. This is when the NBA was in their "bubble" in Orlando. Harlow said the two were at a "location you would never guess." Williams ended up having to quarantine for 10 days before he could play again.
