Jack Harlow found success with songs like ‘First Class’

“First Class” was released in April as the second single from Jack Harlow’s second studio album, Come Home the Kids Miss You. The track heavily samples Fergie’s “Glamorous,” and the writers of her 2006 song, including Fergie, will.i.am., Ludacris, Blac Elvis, are credited on Harlow’s album. 

Harlow revealed that although he got Fergie’s approval to release “First Class,” she hasn’t told him directly what she thinks of the song. “I heard through the grapevine that she loved it,” the rapper said (via StyleCaster). “But I love Fergie. I’ve loved Fergie for years.”

He added that he wasn’t being an “opportunist” by using Fergie’s music in his track because he has been a fan of the “My Humps” singer since elementary school. “To me, it wasn’t just like an opportunist type of energy; to me, I’ve been waiting to do that,” Harlow explained. “People don’t know when I was in 5th grade, I tried to perform ‘Fergalicious’ at the talent show, and they said ‘no’ because it was too explicit. So I didn’t get to do it. But I’ve loved Fergie for that long. And I think now, everything just connected. I was so grateful she cleared it.”

“First Class” debuted at No. 1 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. It was Harlow’s second track, and first solo song, to top the chart after his 2021 collaboration with Lil Nas X on “Industry Baby.” 

Following the success of the rapper’s music, some fans are wondering whether or not Jack Harlow got plastic surgery. 

Some Jack Harlow fans believe the rapper had plastic surgery

Fans are debating whether or not 24-year-old Jack Harlow got plastic surgery on Reddit. One fan created a post saying, “It seems kinda obvious that Jack Harlow got face work done. Do you think he’ll ever talk about it openly?” Many of them think Harlow’s chin and nose have changed significantly. 

“His chin is a new shape and his nose is smaller,” commented one fan, while another wrote, “There are some pics where you can see his chin through his beard. It is a completely new shape.”

One fan said, “People really like to act like it’s his beard but there’s a photo on there where he has the same facial hair and his chin and nose still look different,” while another wrote, “This man clearly had plastic surgery. His nose is an entirely different shape and now points down.” 

Others speculated that changes to the “First Class” rapper’s face were natural. “I think he lost weight, built muscle, dressed better, grew a beard, and got a new hair routine down,” wrote one fan. And another commented, “Why would he grow and style his beard if he got his chin done. I personally don’t think that he got one. But, good for him if he did.”
