Barely a year after her breakthrough mixtape ‘Hood Hottest Princess‘ saw her crowned one of 2023’s most exciting newcomers, Sexyy Red is capitalizing on that momentum by unveiling that project’s follow-up: ‘In Sexyy We Trust.’

Preceded by her inaugural solo Hot 100 top 20 hit ‘Get It Sexyy,’ ‘Trust’ – executive produced by her longtime collaborator Tay Keith – is a star-studded, 14-song effort that includes big names like Mike Will Made It, Lil Baby, and Drake.

The latter serves as the co-star on the headline-grabbing track ‘U My Everything’ that features elements of ‘BBL Drizzy’ – an instrumental diss track made by producer extraordinaire Metro Boomin against the Canadian hitmaker amid his beef with Kendrick Lamar.

“Me and the surgeon got history / I changed a lot of girls’ lives for real, they need a new body, they hittin’ me,” raps Drake. “BBL Drizzy, they want a new body, they ask me for it / The last one drunk, he did it for free ’cause I sent over so many passports for him, for real.”

The latter guests on the set’s latest single, ‘Flava.’

“Wanna rub it up, touch it up, feel it up, run it up, on it all night (all night) / If the lights went down, could you keep it up baby? (mmm) / Keep it up, keep it up baby / I wanna drip it up, flick it up, turn around, lift it up, for you all night (yeah, yeah) / Bet you want to get some of my dutty love, baby,” Shen sings on the summery bop.
