Blige, Fabolous, Dave East, Benny the Butcher, Jadakiss. Imagine all of the favors people owe me, right, and I never used ’em. And then I just said I’m finna make a record."

"Let me start going down the list, and man... Everybody got busy.” Stream "Murder Music" and let us know if you're looking forward to The Algorithm.

Quotable Lyrics

Yo, I only got time to murder shit
I bang 'em while deafing both ears
While I'm making niggas blacken, rip couches and throw cheers
At times, I be unleashing a wrath that most fear
I don't discriminate, I even body close peers
