Here’s a collaboration you probably didn’t know how much you needed — Omeretta The Great x Atlanta Dream.
The two parties got together for a remix of the rapper’s ‘Sorry Not Sorry’ single and it did not disappoint.
If you didn’t already know, the Atlanta rapper’s original track made headlines for claiming that other rappers from neighborhoods just outside of Atlanta aren’t actually from the A.
The lyrics:
“College Park is not Atlanta
Lithonia is not Atlanta
Clayco is not Atlanta
Decatur is not Atlanta
Gwinnett is not Atlanta
Roswell is not Atlanta
Forest Park is not Atlanta
Lilburn is not Atlanta”
The lyrics offended many big-name rappers and even got a response video from Ludacris.
But the latest version of the track is golden. It showcases many of the Atlanta Dream players, in uniform, vibing out to Omeretta’s WNBA-specific lyrics explaining that Chicago, Connecticut, Dallas and the eight other WNBA cities are…
NOT ATLANTA.

The song and video were the results of an official collaboration between the two sides.
Here’s Omeretta The Great on the collab, per WNBA.com.
“I just want to be able to represent my city and where I come from, I’m Atlanta to the core, and it’s important that everyone recognizes that,” said Omeretta. “Women in sports and women in music both have the same struggle when it comes to being accepted. The dope thing about this Atlanta Dream collab is that it represents strong women breaking barriers.”
The collab has also led to the rapper performing at halftime of the Dream’s game against the Sparks on May 11th.
