After popping out with his first and only release of the year “Fly Away” in April, Fatboy returns with a remix of the single featuring Blueface. The song features the New Jersey-born artist speaking on his lifestyle of “expensive linen” and “high fashion”-- the culmination of his meteoric rise to prominence after churning out viral videos on Instagram and Youtube before eventually turning to music.
“All this money treat me different/ Baddies treat me like I’m Hendrix,” he raps over the beat with a contemplative flow in its slow, guitar-strung pace. “Cartier frames be my lensies / Black Beatle, John Lennon.” Throughout the song, he details how his life's been made to live like a rockstar, with a heightened awareness that “big money” has made him “cold” -- a new kind of independence. “Now and then I think I need you,” he continues. “Sometimes I feel like I don’t.”
“The weight of the world on my shoulders / It’s getting harder to look over my shoulder,” Blueface raps, expanding on that sentiment. “These kinds of problems could never be steady / Gotta keep it on me.”
The video features immersive pans of the rappers against Los Angeles’ cityscape, shot from a downtown skyscraper at sunset.

Quotable Lyrics
Stackin' hundreds in the rubber bands 'til they bust out
You can't compare me to no other n**, I'm Clearport and they bus route
Aw yeah, blew a hundred piece on the bustdown
I two-tone the Patek and plain jane the AP, that pole is a must now
