Anyone yearning for the luxurious R&B-tinged sound of Rick Ross' Deeper Than Rap will be happy to hear "Making Me Proud," the new release from Red Cafe. Here he takes on a wavy instrumental from League Of Starz, but it could easily pass for Rozay-endorsed production team J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League. Either way, Cafe makes sure to own the laid-back swagger demanded by the silky-smooth beat.

Jeremih, who's been quietly killing every feature with no album in sight, shows up on the hook, delivering a soaring chorus that would make The-Dream jealous. This is Cafe's second recent collaboration with MMG over the last little while, recently teaming with Fat Trel for "Super Bad Bitch". Look out for big things from Brooklyn rapper this year.

Quotable Lyrics:
She tellin' me I need to change
But baby I need the change
Two coupes, two bricks, life too short
Cocktails, two glocks, and a Newport
