Chris Rivers has been hitting us with a new song every Wednesday as part of his "Barz Day Wednesday" series. Every week since January, the rapper's hopped on a different beat and flexed his lyrical prowess. He's flipped some popular songs from the likes of Big Sean, J. Cole. Lupe Fiasco, Childish Gambino and more. This week, he tackles the production on a A$AP Rocky Testing highlight on "I Am He."

Chris Rivers is back with this week's "Barz Day Wednesday" entry and this time, he drops off a mean freestyle over A$AP Rocky and FKA Twigs Testing collab, "Fukk Sleep." The rapper not only flexes his lyrical abilities, which are consistently sharp, he also flexes his melodic side as well. Rivers is still delivering dope tracks every week. Stay tuned for next week's "Barz Day Wednesday" entry.

Quotable Lyrics
I see birds, I see satellites and stars, I go hard
If I crash landed from the bar that I set, I'd land right where you are
Creme de la creme, tell a friend, tell a friend
That my pen could extend to where the pendulum ends
