Kid Ink Hot New Music 2015: 'Be Real' Featuring DeJ Loaf, Produced by DJ Mustard [Listen]
Kid Ink has released a brand new track titled "Be Real" featuring DeJ Loaf off his upcoming sophomore LP "Full Speed."
Produced by frequent collaborator and hitmaker DJ Mustard, the uptempo song certainly sounds like yet another radio-friendly club banger. Detroit's rising artist to watch kicks off with her catchy, auto-tuned hook.
"You ain't got no whip, you ain't got no bottle / Let's just be honest, let's just be real," she sings over the infectious, bouncy instrumental. "You ain't got no cash, you ain't got no dollas / You stay with that drama, let's just be real."
Following the "Try Me" hitmaker, the Los Angeles emcee jumps on the synth-heavy track, representing the West Coast and his crew. "I'm in this, representing West Side / Lotta people try to tell me I'm the next guy," he raps. "Batgang, got it tatted by my left eye / Chain gang over here, no necktie."
Meanwhile, Lil Wayne recently took to his Twitter account on Jan. 19 to give a shout-out to Kid Ink, who just released "Hott Boyy" at the time:
1 time 4 da homie Kid Ink 4 da luv!
— Lil Wayne WEEZY F (@LilTunechi) January 19, 2015
During his interview with Power 105.1's "The Breakfast Club" on Jan. 23, the "Show Me" rapper expressed his excitement over Wayne's recent tweet.
"That was first acknowledgement [and] time ever talking to Weezy and getting any type of respect from that side of things," he said. "So it was dope to really see that. It's not like it's a record that's spinning everywhere so for him to hear it, I appreciate it."
He then claimed that he was supposed to appear on Lil Tunechi's just dropped "Sorry 4 the Wait 2" mixtape: "I actually tried to be a part of the mixtape, but he told me I missed it by two days."
The Batgang leader also discussed a bit of his latest project, particularly about a collaborative track with R. Kelly, "Dolo." "I wasn't able to get in the studio with him, but we were communicating since the last album," he added.
"Be Real" is the seventh track off "Full Speed," which is set for a release on Feb. 3, made available for pre-order via iTunes: the "Iz U Down" rapper already dropped "Body Language" featuring Usher & Tinashe, "Hotel" featuring Chris Brown, "Cool Back," "Blunted," as well as "Like A Hott Boyy" featuring Young Thug & Bricc Baby Shitro.
