Another Pop SmokeShoot For the Stars, Aim For the Moon track has received the remix treatment. On the heels of Summer Walker hopping on “Mood Swings” in September, Lil Wayne adds a verse to bless the deluxe edition sleeper “Iced Out Audemars,” which hit streaming services Thursday (October 15).

“Rest in peace to Poppy/Here today, we gone tomorrow (Gone tomorrow)/That’s the art of war(art of war)/Too many fallen stars (For the stars)/And when it rains it storms (Yeah)/Iced out Audemars,” Wayne rhymes.

He always wanted to be a global artist and be able to make different colored music of all the different things that had an impact on him. He really loved R&B, Afrobeat, the drill sound, New York Hip Hop.”
