G Perico returns with his take on a Nas classic.

Fresh off the release of his album 2 Tha Left and G Perico isn't showing any signs that he'll be slowing down in the near future. The west coast rapper is gearing up to head on tour at the top of February to promote the project but he still has more music to unleash. The rapper now puts his spin on Nas' "If I Ruled The World" for a new take on a classic beat.

G Perico has a classic west coast feel to his flow, voice and delivery so to hear him put his spin on Nas' "If I Ruled The World" is refreshing. The track lasts a bit over three minutes but Perico closes out the song with what he'd change in the world if he had the choice. "We gon' get rid of all you informant n*ggas. Matter fact, we gon' do that one first."

Quotable Lyrics
Lookin' at everybody watchin' me
All in my rearview mirror 
'Cause I know these n*ggas stalkin' me
Used to shoot guns in public
Now everything being recorded 
Can't let nobody see me do nothin'
