Maino seems to have a lot of things on his plate these days. The rapper recently linked up with Joe Budden for his new roundtable YouTube show, "Pull Up." At the tail end of 2017, the rapper released his mixtape, Party And Pain which hailed features from the likes of Dave East, Fat Joe, Young Greatness, Uncle Murda and more. Now, Maino comes through with his latest single, "Velour."
Maino is fresh off of the launch of his new show collaboration with FILA and now, he pays homage to the iconic brand with his new single, "Velour." With a sample heavy beat backing him, Maino delivers a monstrous track with evident NYC inspiration behind it. We may not get a whole lot of music from Maino in recent times, but when he does, he comes through.
Quotable Lyrics
Dope dealers, we broke n*gga
The coke dealers was bringin' us hope n*gga
Us lil n*ggas looked up to the old n*ggas
On the corner, momma cried every time the folks get us
