LiAngelo Ball’s debut track “Tweaker” is taking him to places. The viral hit has not just become a locker-room staple but also a certified banger, ahead of mega hits like “Birds of a Feather” and “APT” on Spotify’s charts. Following the release of the song, his brother Lonzo Ball, has shown his support but a recent tweet from Lonzo has left fans wondering if there’s more to the story.

In a string of cryptic tweets, Lonzo Ball has added more fuel to speculation about the future of the Ball family’s involvement in the music business. After the news broke that LiAngelo signed a massive $8 million deal with Def Jam and Universal Music Group, Lonzo’s recent post caught everyone’s attention: “Now y’all see why we couldn’t drop… Higher ups said hold up lol Was outta my hands”.

At first glance, the tweet seems like a casual comment. But considering the timing and the context, it feels like Lonzo might be hinting at something more. Could it be that the Ball family has been waiting for the right moment to release more music or projects? Is there a bigger plan in place behind the scenes? Lonzo’s tweet makes it clear that the ball (pun intended) was in someone else’s court—possibly the people overseeing the deal. Fans can’t help but wonder if the cryptic message was a clue to an even bigger rollout for LiAngelo’s music career.

What’s next for LiAngelo and the Ball family in the music world?

LiAngelo Ball’s sudden leap into the music scene might be surprising to some, but it’s clearly paying off. While some, like Patrick Beverley, have poked fun at the song for its simplicity (mocking the “woah, woah” chorus), it’s clear that “Tweaker” has resonated with a large audience. The track’s success not only solidified LiAngelo’s position as an artist, but it also opened doors for bigger opportunities. Just recently, he signed a contract worth up to $13 million with Def Jam and Universal Music Group. And this news came after it was announced that Ball will be performing at the Rolling Loud festival in Los Angeles this March.

What’s your perspective on:

Is Lonzo hinting at a Ball family music empire, or just supporting LiAngelo's solo success?

Have an interesting take?

Lonzo’s cryptic tweet about the delay in releasing music could be more than just a passing remark. It could signal that there are bigger things in the works for LiAngelo. While Lonzo’s support for his brother has always been unwavering, this tweet just further emphasizes his belief in his brother’s potential. It’s clear that the Ball family is backing LiAngelo’s music career, and his sudden rise in the industry shows just how much momentum he’s gaining.

While LiAngelo has already given us the first viral song of 2025, his brother Lonzo’s tweets from “2025 YEAR OF G!!!” to “I didn’t say which Friday… business is business Big News coming soon!” and “Told yall big news was coming” indicate some big projects are coming soon. It’s been also revealed that LiAngelo has launched his own record label, Born2Ball Music Group. It could potentially hint that not only LiAngelo’s own music but possibly artists or projects could be on the way.
