SZA's "The Weekend" has been one of the most highlighted joints off her acclaimed CTRL. While she sparked rumors of a deluxe version on the way, we've yet to find out about an actual release date but it's all good. Today, Maino comes through with an additional verse on "The Weekend."

While SZA's original verses are in tact, Maino comes through at the top of the track with some thug love. He gets straight to the point about the privacy he needs when it comes to seeing his side chick and provides the male perspective to SZA's song. It's a solid effort from Maino and he plays with the melodies on this one in a rap-sing type of way.

The rapper recently dropped off his Party & Pain project and grabbed some solid artists for the project. It seems like Maino's starting to re-gain his prominence in the game and with this remix, he's keeping things moving forward.

Quotable Lyrics
Stick to the rules of a sidechick,
We can't do dates up at iPic
But on the weekend, you my bitch
Please keep your Instagram private
