Featuring Buddy (whom she previously shared airtime with on the critically acclaimed tune ‘Glitch’), Sweet T never indicated if the banger is the first single from a new album – the follow-up to 2019’s ‘Songs For U’ – or a new EP.

What we do know is you can look inside to hear the new tune which samples the 2003 Outkast classic, ‘Hey Ya!’

Los Angeles-based DJs Cheat Codes had been West Coast staples long before breaking into Billboard in 2017 with their first Platinum-certified top 40 hit, ‘No Promises’ (featuring Demi Lovato).

And while the trio has yet to match or surpass the success of ‘Promises,’ buzz around their latter work has been promising – especially their newest effort with Urban Pop sensation Tinashe.  The ‘All Hands on Deck’ diva lends a helping hand on their single, ‘Lean on Me’ (just announced earlier this week).

“Baby, when you’re falling / You can lean on me / When you don’t feel strong / Whеn you don’t believe / Baby, lеt me love you / I won’t ever leave / Promise when you’re falling,” she sings on the new track.

Only DJ Khaled could bring together Nas and Jay-Z.

The pair have joined forces for the first time in over a decade on Khaled’s new album, ‘Khaled Khaled,’ for a track called ‘Sorry Not Sorry.’ Following the album’s release on April 30, the producer shared rare footage of a call between Jay and Nas.

In the clip, the ‘If I Ruled The World’ rapper is in the studio with Khaled while speaking with Hova over FaceTime.

After hearing Jay’s verse, Nas said:

“Oh no, no no. I’m just here tweaking lines and sh*t. I’m in here like rewriting four bars.”

Jay-Z laughed and then Nas went on to praise Beyoncé’s backing vocals too. In the end, neither rewrote their lyrics.
