In a perfect world, the trifecta would deliver a collaborative album.

Last night, Mike WiLL Made-It, Young Thug, and Swae Lee brought their talents to late night television, holding it down for a performance of "Fate." While never billed as a single, it seems destined for the process; we can only hope a video follows suit, as the song feels tailor-made for mainstream success. While late-tonight live performances can occasionally feel stilted, Young Thug in particular absolutely goes in, proving that no backing track is required. Check out the Tonight Show rendition of their Creed II: The Album banger below, if you still need convincing.

Though notions of a collaborative album are merely wishful thinking, perhaps positive reinforcement is the wisest course to achieving the desired results. After all, Mike WiLL, Swae Lee, and Young Thug are two for two by my estimation, with both "Offshore" and "Fate" bringing monstrous performances out of Country Billy; for whatever reason, Thugger has taken to spitting bars over Mike WiLL's instrumentation. Perhaps it's the dulcet tones of Swae Lee egging him on. In any case, the trio clearly understand what they're working with - peep the "Human Highlight Reels" for yourself.
