J. Cole assists Moneybagg Yo on "Say Na."

Moneybagg Yo has been delivering project after project over the years, but today, his debut album, Reset arrived. The rapper's been teasing the project for a minute now and just last week, he revealed some of the features which included J. Cole. While many people didn't know what to expect, Moneybagg revealed that he brought out "Trap J. Cole" on the song "Say Na" and he wasn't lying.

Moneybagg Yo and J. Cole link up on "Say Na," an automatic highlight off of the Memphis rapper's debut album, Reset. The track was produced by Drumgod and Javar Rockamore who deliver a haunting trap beat for the two rappers to snap on. The two producers previously connected with Moneybagg Yo on "Point Made" from August's Bet On Me EP.

The collaboration between the two rappers is a surprise to most, including Moneybagg Yo who ended up running into Cole by chance during a studio session in L.A. During a recent interview, Moneybagg revealed that he and Cole bumped into each other at an L.A. studio when he invited the "ATM" rapper to peep some music. "He walked right in [to the studio] in less than three minutes and [was] like, 'Yo, pull something up, what you got?'" Moneybagg recalled.

"[Cole] was like, 'This a good song, they gon' rock with it,' but that ain't what I'm looking for," He said. "I want to come to your world.' So I got the trap J. Cole [laughs]."

Quotable Lyrics
Pick up a check
So many digits this shit lookin' like cell phone numbers
With the heron on us, well-known hustlers
Climbed up from the tailbone where the world don't want us
Plus young n***as be dumpin', they shootin' from close like some elbow jumpers
