Jose Rios, Kelsey Gonzales, Callum Connor, and T. Nava – who collectively form the Free Nationals – may be best known for backing GRAMMY-winning superstar Anderson. Paak, but now the foursome are stepping back into the spotlight (with his help) via their new single ‘Gangsta.’

Tapping chart-topping rapper A$AP Rocky to assist, the funky new tune’s arrival is accompanied by a Francois Rousselet-directed music video.

“Yeah, I roll to my perfection and I smoke with no detection / Baddest hoes in my direction, ain’t no hoe in my reflection,” raps Rocky over Paak production.

Before her 2024 musical adaptation of the cult classic ‘Mean Girls’ stormed theaters on January 12, the movie’s star – Renee Rapp – had Pop music lovers wrapped around her finger with the soundtrack’s catchy lead single ‘Not My Fault‘ featuring GRAMMY-winning rapstress Megan Thee Stallion.

And while the song was greeted with ample critical buzz, it’s not quite seen that success mirrored commercially as it’s yet to crack the Hot 100 (as of time of this report).

The bid to change that status came this week when Stallion and Rapp unwrapped a peek at the other side of the lens of the cut’s Mia Barnes-directed music video.
