The long-awaited collaboration from XXXTENTACION and Lil Peep is coming tomorrow.
Lil Peep's Collaboration "Falling Down" Drops Tomorrow">We've lost a lot of young legends in the past year. Both Lil Peep and XXXTENTACION were leaders of the new generation of rappers but unfortunately, their lives were cut short. In mid-August, ILOVEMAKONNEN, who was extremely close with Peep, revealed that there was a collaboration with XXXTENTACION and Lil Peep in the works. Although there wasn't a confirmed release date at the time, both X and Peep's mother have revealed that it will be dropping tomorrow.
Both XXXTENTACION and Lil Peep's mothers have announced via the artists Instagrams that their long-awaited collaboration, "Falling Down" will officially be released tomorrow. X's mother shared a clip from one of his last studio sessions when the rapper was recording his verse for "Falling Down" and praising Lil Peep.
"His name will live, brother! I feel hella shitty because if I would've known he was so cool, I would've fucked with him sooner," X is heard saying on the clip on his Instagram story.
The song will arrive tomorrow morning. ILOVEMAKONNEN previously revealed that he co-wrote the song and X chose to hop on it shortly before his death. "Falling Down" will also serve as one of the first pieces of posthumous music from both Lil Peep and XXXTENTACION.
ILOVEMAKONNEN also shared a short snippet of the song on his Instagram earlier today while thanking Peep's mother and X's mother for allowing the song to see the light of day.
