The star-studded rework arrived on Thursday (April 27) and includes Boosie’s original verse followed by The Snowman and Yak batting third.

The ATL trap pioneer steals the show while ruminating about the losses of those close to him and the struggles he sees in American society.
“I see my n-gga layin’ stiff and I ain’t shed a tear/Done lost twelve of my partners in a half a year/The other day, I lost my n-gga, plus my auntie sick/Them n-ggas killed my n-gga, robbed him for a half a brick,” Jeezy raps.

“Another homicide, n-gga, another mama cried, n-gga/Another uncle died, n-gga, fuck it, got a side/You got money for war, but can’t feed the poor/Might move to South Florida, them bricks washin’ ashore.”
Listen to the “Rocketman (Remix)” below.
TakeOff was shot and killed outside 810 Billiards and Bowling Alley in Houston on November 1 after an argument following a heated dice game. The 28-year-old’s murder has spawned a pair of arrests.
A Harris County Medical Examiner said in TakeOff’s autopsy report that the Migos member died of “penetrating gunshot wounds of head and torso into arm.”
The alleged triggerman, Patrick Clark, was arrested and charged with TakeOff’s murder and has since posted a $1 million bond to secure his release from jail in January.
As part of his bond agreement, Clark will have to wear an ankle monitor and remain at his parents’ home in Houston, while also avoiding contact with TakeOff’s family.

Authorities linked him to the crime by surveillance footage showing him firing a gun and a wine bottle left at the scene containing his fingerprints.
Despite maintaining his innocence, Clark reportedly planned to flee the country after the shooting. It was revealed during a court hearing in December that the 33-year-old had applied for an expedited passport and bought plane tickets to Mexico just two days before his arrest.
The first arrest in TakeOff’s shooting was made when 16-year-old rapper Lil Cam (real name Cameron Joshua) was taken into custody in Houston on November 22 and charged with felony unlawful carry of a weapon.
