The Alchemist and ScHoolboy Q link up once again on the producer’s lead single from his upcoming album The Genuine Articulate and he’s going to be rapping on this one.
“Ferraris in the Rain” features Alchemist hoppin’ out various luxury vehicles to lay down some heat. “Look, I whip the ‘Rari in the rain/Ice in my veins, I’m sippin’ on Bacardi straight/ Just gettin’ started, I hardly ate/ Icin’ all on me, I’m a birthday party cake,” he spits as he literally hops out of a Ferrari SF90 Stradale. ScHoolboy then follows up with the last verse. “The rose grill, is that the pearly gates?/ The big clock, it got the bumpy face,” he raps as he stands in front of a white Rolls-Royce that he just got off layaway.
Both have had great years so far. Q dropped one of the best rap albums of the year with Blue Lips, and The Alchemist has been hella active this year as usual. He put out a couple of projects with Hit-Boy, produced tracks for Big Sean, released a new Gangrene album, and found himself intertwined in the Kendrick and Drake battle when the former used one his beats for “Meet the Grahams.” A few months back, the producer/rapper took to social media and showed fans how he made the beat.
TMZ caught up with The Alchemist while he was leaving LAX, and he sounded pretty confident that Kendrick will be releasing an album this year. He also told them that he sends Lamar beats all the time. “I work with Dot all the time, so I’m always sending him beats.” Adding, “I got some records in this car. I’m about to go send them as soon as I get home.”
The Genuine Articulate is set to drop next week on Sept. 20.
