OG Maco's 'U Guessed It' has gradually become one of the hottest songs out. The impossibly minimal ATL banger was due for a big remix, and while it could have easily crowded the song with unnecessary features, instead it's been given a well selected verse from 2 Chainz. OG Maco is the third EP by American hip hop recording artist OG Maco. It was released for free on November 28, 2014, by Quality Control Music and OGG. OG Maco features guest appearances from 2 Chainz, OG Brylan Kerr, JerZ, Migos, and more.

Car crash[edit]
On July 28, 2016, OG Maco was in a near-fatal car crash. Maco suffered multiple skull fractures, cracked vertebrae, a broken orbital, heart palpitations, and almost lost his right eye.[6][7]
Despite earlier reports, OG Maco never lost his right eye. His eyesight only became extremely distorted, so he had to wear an eye-patch during his subsequent recovery.[8] A few surgical procedures on OG Maco's right eye by his doctors has corrected the eyesight and has proven successful, and OG Maco is still able to see through it. Many earlier reports claimed doctors replaced his apparent blinded eye with a prosthetic one; although these reports were later found to be misinformation or false.
