Background[edit]

One of the lines in the track features Yachty and Juice rapping, "I'm a young king, I might fuck Alexis Texas / But I ain't on no Drake shit, I won't get her pregnant".[1][2] Yachty said that Drake allegedly laughed at the line.[3]

At the time, we were in the booth together actually. He said it and I was like, 'Wow, okay'. I talked to Drake about it and he said it was all good. He felt there was really no harm. I told Drake before, because I fuck with Drake. Then it came out and he laughed at it.

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
