Songs That Mention Tesla

It’s official — Tesla isn’t just a car anymore. Whatever your feeling about the brand and its owner, Tesla has become a flex, a status symbol, and a recurring guest star in over 100 popular songs. From Atlanta trap anthems to Euro rap bangers, the electric car brand has found its way into lyrics across genres, languages, and continents.

So we did the only logical thing: sharing a playlist of songs that all name-drop Tesla. And whether it’s a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it reference or the centerpiece of the hook, each track in this electrified collection plugs into something bigger — how culture, success, and innovation collide in modern music.

Why Tesla?

In hip-hop, name-dropping a luxury car brand isn’t new — but there’s something different about a Tesla bar. It’s not just about speed or price. It’s about being futuristic, eco-conscious, and maybe even a little mysterious. When rappers and pop stars mention Tesla, they’re not just flexing wealth — they’re flexing vision.

What You’ll Hear

This playlist cruises through a wide sonic highway:

• Trap & Hip-Hop: Expect big names like 21 Savage, Lil Baby, 2 Chainz, and Young Thug weaving Tesla bars into stories about ambition, late-night rides, and flex-heavy lifestyles. For these artists, a Tesla isn’t just a car — it’s part of the come-up.
• Pop & R&B: Artists like blackbear, Marshmello, and Anne-Marie sneak Tesla references into glossy hooks and smooth verses, showing the brand’s crossover appeal beyond the hip-hop world.
• International Sounds: You’ll also find tracks from German, French, and Italian rap scenes, proving Tesla’s global pop culture status. Whether it’s Kollegah spitting bars in German or La Fouine delivering lines in French, the Tesla drop hits just as hard.
• Alternative & Indie: Even artists outside the mainstream, from BROCKHAMPTON to Jaden, drop Tesla into their lyrics — sometimes ironically, sometimes reverently.

Not Just About the Car

While Tesla is the common thread, what really makes this playlist shine is the variety. It’s a showcase of how one brand can mean so many different things to different artists: a symbol of independence, wealth, innovation, or even rebellion. Some mention it in passing, while others make it a central metaphor. Either way, each song offers a new take on the Tesla mythos.
