“the best f*****g beats. the best f*****g verses. i’m so proud of these verses man. every feature is so special. b***h i never thought i’d ever be on a song with snoop and P. plz stop playin w us,” he wrote in a third tweet, expressing his excitement for the release of KAYTRAMINÉ and the A-list features it would include.
