Atlanta Rapper DreTL Triumphs in Netflix’s “Rhythm + Flow” Season Two

Atlanta’s Own DreTL Shines Bright, Wins Netflix’s “Rhythm + Flow”!

Hey there, Atlanta! It’s quite the momentous occasion in our vibrant city, as local rapper DreTL has triumphed in Netflix’s second season of “Rhythm + Flow”. This exciting reality competition has been a launchpad for up-and-coming rappers, featuring an elite panel of celebrity judges, including the dynamic Ludacris, trendsetter Latto, and the ever-famous DJ Khaled. Can you believe it? DreTL beat out a whopping 100,000 contestants from all around the country and emerged as the last rapper standing!

The Journey to Stardom

In an exclusive chat with a local reporter, DreTL shared his remarkable journey of how he got involved with the show. “Honestly, I think it was a sign from God,” he said, reflecting on the sudden opportunity that came knocking on his door. After performing plenty of shows and open mics, a friend reached out with a casting call that changed his life forever. Just imagine: out of the 100,000 hopefuls, he was one of the lucky few chosen to participate, and he made sure to seize the moment.

Filming in the Heart of Atlanta

Being from Atlanta and having the show filmed right in his hometown was a twist that at first didn’t feel quite right for DreTL. “I was a bit disappointed because I was hoping to hop on a flight to Los Angeles,” he chuckled, “but in the end, it worked out for me.” He later realized that having Ludacris, Latto, and DJ Khaled as judges played a significant role since they could relate to his southern vibe. Talk about perfect timing!

A Full Circle Moment

For DreTL, performing at the iconic State Farm Arena during halftime of the Hawks vs. Lakers game was a dream come true. “I worked there for years, and recently I was just focused on my job,” he reminisced. “To go from working there to performing on that very stage is surreal.” He laughed as he recalled how his cousin had always predicted that he’d one day be the one in the spotlight.

Graduation and New Beginnings

As if winning a major competition wasn’t enough, DreTL is also on the cusp of graduating from Georgia State University. “It’s all happening at the same time, and I feel like it’s just all God’s blessing,” he expressed with gratitude. It’s an incredible ride for a guy who’s put in the hard work. He acknowledged that life can throw you some tough challenges, and sometimes you might wonder, “Why is this happening?” But staying true to his mission has evidently paid off. On top of that, he’s got a December birthday to celebrate—what a festive month!

A Bright Future Ahead

The sky is truly the limit for DreTL now. His talent, perseverance, and positive attitude have already brought him so far, and it looks like he’s just getting started. It’ll be exciting to see what else this talented artist will achieve in the near future. As Atlanta continues to celebrate its own, we can’t help but cheer for our local superstar, DreTL, as he steps confidently into this new chapter of his life!

So, here’s to the musical genius that is DreTL! May your journey be filled with even more amazing moments, and keep making Atlanta proud!
