Moneybagg Yo and Kevin Gates have developed a strong bond, not only on wax but in their personal relationship with one another. The two teased a joint project earlier this summer and it looks like we're not far from getting it. Today, the two Southern rappers connect on their new track, "Federal Pressure."

Kevin Gates and Moneybagg Yo speak to the streets on their new track, "Federal Pressure." The track was produced by Javar Rockamore who's worked with Moneybagg Yo in the past, most recently on Reset. While neither of them confirmed whether the single is off of the project, Moneybagg recently revealed that the joint album is still on the way.

"We locked in, we Facetime every day, IG Live every other day. Like, it's love," Moneybagg told us about his relationship with Kevin Gates. "And we got something comin'. Project and a tour, like soon. Real soon."

Hopefully, it's something we could look forward to at the top of 2019. The two rappers have been quite busy over the past few months. Gates released his first official post-prison album, Luca Brasi 3 while Moneybagg Yo just dropped his debut album Reset which featured another collab with Gates titled, "Fall Down" alongside Rvssian.

Quotable Lyrics
I put your hood on CNN, but lets keep it out of the media
I'm catchin' the shit that you n***as did, but I don't really be reading it
I got your lil' bitch on the camera, but lets keep it out of the media
All of my jewelry be dancin', hard to be movin' strategically
