Denzel Curry and Kenny Beats are collaborating for their new album, "ii," and on Wednesday, they dropped off the lead single, "DIFFERENCE."

Denzel Curry and Kenny Beats have collaborated in the past, and it has always resulted in some heat. On Wednesday, the pair collaborated once again, this time on the track "DIFFERENCE." This new song is part of the duo's album, ii, coming on August 21. The track features Yebba, and it is clear that every artist here is firing on all cylinders. Kenny Beats comes through with some lush and layered production. Meanwhile, Curry's flows help carry the song forward, all while Yebba provides the hook. It's a nice taste test for the album, and we are excited to hear more.

Quotable Lyrics from DIFFERENCE

Y'all was out and boofin', they double' the wages
Made the point, and then I guard it, like I'm Aaron Davis
Celebrate my wins like holidays that’s very Pagan
Agin' like it's fine wine, sippin' on my downtime
