The single is out now, along with a music video which includes footage of the first time Yachty heard the track on a “properrrr” soundsystem.
“Hiiiii we haven’t done a video in ages”, Fred Again.. shares in the video description. “I’m pretty sure that before this [Lil Yachty] might have only heard it thru his phone lol. And this tune is obviously builtttt for rooms and sound like this. So it was fun to get to play it to him like that”.
