Unveiled Friday (October 6), the yuletide dance track was preceded with news of its parent album’s full tracklist (which features heavy hitters like Stevie Wonder, Michael Buble, Tyga, Cyndi Lauper, and more).

Originally found aboard the latter’s critically acclaimed 2023 album ‘Age of Pleasure,’ the track sees the hitmaking trio trade verses about enjoying the finer things in life.

“On my champagne sh-t / How you get the lamb, b-tch, it’s all in the lips / All in the hips / Whole lotta bad b-tches, all in the vill / Pack a bag on a n-gga ‘fore I trip / B-tches want smoke better pass me a tip,” Stephens spits on the Nate ‘Rocket’ Wonder-produced cut.
