Gerald Walker is fresh off of landing a new partnership with Stalley's label, Blue Collar Gang and it's clear that he's aiming to take things to the next level this year. The rapper released his collaboration with former MMG labelmates Rockie Fresh and Stalley earlier this year called "Peace Of Mine" and today, he comes through with his latest single, "Trenches" alongside Stix and Layzie Bone of Bone Thugs-N-Harmony.

Gerald Walker details his come-up on his latest track, "Trenches." The rapper taps Cardo for the song's smooth production. On "Trenches," Gerald Walker documents the changes in his life from when he was a kid to now including the team that surrounds him. "I see myself now and damn, I'm so astounded/ Had to dump my old team, my new team is my attorney and my accountant," he raps on the song. It's a track that shows Walker's confidence especially after joining Stalley's BCG.

"I’ve always been a fan of Stalley’s music, however, seeing how he comports himself personally and in business is already contributing to my development as an artist." Walker said to Billboard.

Keep your eyes peeled for more new music from Gerald Walker.

Quotable Lyrics
Now I'm in a new playing field
I'm from the mud, trust, I was barely even paying bills
Shit got ugly like the face of seal
Fast forward, seven major tour without a major deal
