"Time Today" is a song by American rapper Moneybagg Yo. It was released as the lead single of his fourth studio album, A Gangsta's Pain, on February 3, 2021. It was produced by Real Red and YC, who both wrote the song with him,[1] and peaked at number 31 on the Billboard Hot 100.
The "bass heavy" song finds Moneybagg Yo rapping about gossip around him and being the center of attention,[2] over "YC's utterly gargantuan 808 blasts".[3] [4] On Consequence of Sound, Eli Enis writes that the song is "essentially one long flex against Moneybagg's unnamed haters, but it's a lot more fun and bouncy than it is bitter", and that "His flow is sturdy yet flexible, and his voice has the baritone-esque oomph of rappers like DaBaby and Young Dolph."
A music video for the song was released alongside the single. In it, Moneybagg Yo is followed by paparazzi in a grocery store, and he also addresses rumors about him and his haters in a press conference on a faux news channel.[5] At home, he watches himself on television, switching between the press conference to a spoof of the TV series Girlfriends, in which he plays the role of William Dent.
