88GLAM and Gunna link up on "Racks."

The XO camp has been working relentlessly hard with each member of the roster dropping a project this year. 88GLAM was relatively quiet for the majority of the year since releasing their 2017 debut, but they were clearly getting to the bag and working on their follow-up project. Last week, they released their first single off of 88GLAM2, the Lil Yachty-inspired single, "Lil Boat." The Toronto duo released their long-awaited sophomore project today which includes the Gunna-assisted single, "Racks."

Co-produced by Maaly Raw and Cubeatz, 88GLAM recruit Gunna for their murky strip club anthem, "Racks." The song is one of the few songs on the project that have a guest appearance. Derek Wise, 88CAMINO, and Gunna's autotune-laden vocals mesh well with each other on this highlight off of 88GLAM2.

Gunna's been building a solid reputation with the XO camp. He's worked with NAV, who also features on 88GLAM2, on numerous occasions including Reckless cut "EAT" and Drip Season 3 cut, "Car Sick" alongside Metro Boomin.

Quotable Lyrics
Cut me a check
Only ones talkin', I know ain't a threat
I'm a big boss, I could double the bet
She mad 'cause I keep ignoring her texts
YSL XO, family 'til we dead
I fell asleep with two hoes in my bed
Get what you want and you don't gotta beg
Bean had me geeked so I poured up some red
