We've got the CDQ of Wale's "The Summer League," feat. Kanye West & Ty Dolla $ign.

Wale's giving his fans some Labor Day blessings. He just dropped the video to TAAN single "The Bloom," shot in Anguilla, and now he's given us another piece of summery goodness, "The Summer League." The track was premiered back in March on HOT 97 but hasn't seen an official release since. And trust -- the CDQ sounds so much better -- we just wish we had a little more summertime left to enjoy it. 

The track is announced with fitting enthusiasm by an old-timer emcee, and the cross-country collab doesn't disappoint. The beat is stripped down to just drums, but with Dolla $ign and Kanye's auto-tuned crooning, and Wale's breezy rapping, it coasts along seamlessly. 

Quotable Lyrics
We slippin' and slidin' 
I made it to the top, but my mama from Naija
And I just wanna watch it
She used to "Flower Bomb," now that candy is Prada

- Wale
