Rich The Kid's major label debut is about to have some crazy features.

Rich The Kid's been in the game for a minute now but it hasn't been up until the past few months that people started recognizing his name. "New Freezer" featuring Kendrick Lamar definitely had a role in that but it also could be that he's been living his best life on Instagram and has been building the anticipation for his debut album for a minute now. Earlier today, he premiered his new single "Plug Walk" on Beats1 radio show with Zane Lowe. During the interview, he let the cat out of the bag on who to expect on his major label debut.

Rich The Kid recently spoke to Zane Lowe and revealed that he has some major names on his upcoming project. The project is yet to be titled but is slated for a March release. Rich has tapped Khalid, Lil Wayne and Chris Brown for the project as well as members of his Rich Forever including Famous Dex and Jay Critch. In addition, he'll also have production from TheLabCook who'll be producing the song with Chris Brown. Of course, you could expect Kendrick Lamar on the project as well for "New Freezer."

Rich The Kid is already thinking ahead of his debut album. After that drops, he'll be releasing Rich Forever 4 compilation which he revealed will also have some heavy hitters attached. He revealed to Zane Lowe that his collaboration with Pusha T will be on Rich Forever 4 as well as a collaboration with Jeezy.
