“Fuck you mean? I’m the generous king for real/ I fuck her to sleep then I light up the street, got her screamin’ like Billie Jean for real/ I’m from the M, I got Ms in the bank and Ms in all my streams for real/ Feelin’ like Phil, they’ll be livin’ like Carlton if I leave ’em in the will,” he raps.
Along with the new song, Big Sean also teased an appearance on NPR Music’s Tiny Desk Concert series, posting a photo from the session.
The live performance also included Detroit singer Eryn Allen Kane, who recently won a couple of Grammys for her appearance on Killer Mike‘s “Scientists & Engineers” with Future and André 3000.
Big Sean released his last album Detroit 2 in 2020 featuring the likes of Eminem, Lil Wayne, Diddy, Travis Scott, Young Thug, Post Malone and Nipsey Hussle.
The project debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with roughly 103,000 total album-equivalent units in its first week.

Sean replied: “Man, working on it? Finishing it. I’m not working on it. I mean, we really finished it.”
