Earlier this month, St. Louis native Ryan Trey delivered a collaboration with Babyface Ray, "Only Us," that's still in rotation with fans.

The accompanying visual for the Wavy Wallace-produced joint was directed by Mac Grant, and meshes high-definition clips with grainy film to create a lo-fi sort of look. The two artists sit with friends of a front porch to get their verses off, their deliveries coming with sheer charisma.

"Thousand dollars tennis shoes, cop whatever just for you / You want me now, I want you too, I put that on my soul," Trey begins his first verse. "Treat you like that Bentley coupe, where you at? I'll fly to you / I'll make sure it's just me and you, I'll never let you go."

For the XXL Freshman's part, he raps, "When we out it's only us, treat me like your OnlyFans / Watch you like my favourite show, poppin' like some rubberbands / That n*gga that you entertainin', nah, he ain't seein' me / Bet you run laps through the mall, get you C and C."

Quotable Lyrics:

Thousand dollars tennis shoes, cop whatever just for you
You want me now, I want you too, I put that on my soul
Treat you like that Bentley coupe, where you at? I'll fly to you
I'll make sure it's just me and you, I'll never let you go
