After all the setbacks & delays, Rae Sremmurd’s highly anticipated SR3MM album finally surfaced online today. The triple-disc album, which contains 27 songs in total, features 9 songs from Rae Sremmurd as a group and two solo albums from Slim Jxmmi (Jxmtro) and Swae Lee (Swaecation) respectively. It features an all-star line up of guest appearances as well, including The Weeknd, Future, YG, Travis Scott, Young Thug & more.
Having already heard a plethora of the tracks prior to its release, here goes one of the never-before-heard standouts called “Bedtime Stories” featuring The Weeknd.
“We was on tour with The Weeknd. The “Legends of the Fall” tour. It’s coming towards the end of the tour and we wanted to get a song in,” Swae told Zane Lowe about collabing with Abel. “We ended up stopping in Atlanta and fuckin' with Mike Will in the studio. Cooked up that 'Bedtime Stories’ organic. From scratch,” he added. “Pure collaboration pure vibes.”
“He like an instrument bro. His voice, he can say anything. He can say ‘scratching my elbow’ and its gon’ sound good. When he singing it gon' sound like a masterpiece. And dude super creative. He can go in there and one take & say whole bunch of different ideas,” Swae said about working with The Weekend.
Take a listen to the melodic late night ballad and let us know what you think. New hit or nah?
Quotable Lyrics:
I'm not tryna tell you bedtime stories
I'm not like those other niggas talkin' to you
I'm not lookin' at you, I'm lookin' right through you
Said I'm not like those other niggas that pursue you
You know, tell me you know
Tell me you know, tell me you know
Tell me you know, tell me you know
Tell me you know, tell me you know, yeah
- Abel
