The visual for “Don’t Be Mad At Me” kicks off with fan love as Louie roadruns through Houston—swinging by Johnny Dang’s for jewelry and linking with That Mexican OT and Sauce Walka in the club.

The inspiration for the album’s title relates to how things can change in the blink of an eye. That shift is what drives Louie’s new project. From the raw opener “Still Louie Ray” to the reflective closer “Getting Hotter,” the project’s fourteen tracks chronicle Louie’s journey from the streets of Flint to an unshakable position at rap’s forefront. The album’s soundscape—crafted by producers Vibe Dealer, TWFDB, Murda Beats, and SeChange—along with guest appearances from Detroit heavyweight BabyFace Ray (“Ray Ray”), Flint mainstay BabyFxce E (“Bag On His Head”), and Houston’s That Mexican OT (“Big As Hell”), adds further dimension to Louie’s Midwest roots.
Stand-out tracks on Tables Turn include the cinematic “100K,” which captures Louie’s relentless effort to hit six figures; the braggadocious “I Crush ’Em;” and the introspective “2 Blessed,” where Louie gives thanks to those who believed in him. Tables Turn marks a new chapter for Louie as he’s shifting gears creatively. Louie is now exploring more introspective territory and forging a path all his own.
