Transcription
Background
One of the lines in the track features Yachty and Juice rapping, "I'm a young king, I might fuck Alexis Texas / But I ain't on no Drake shit, I won't get her pregnant".[1][2] Yachty said that Drake allegedly laughed at the line.[3]
At the time, we were in the booth together actually. He said it and I was like, 'Wow, okay'. I talked to Drake about it and he said it was all good. He felt there was really no harm. I told Drake before, because I fuck with Drake. Then it came out and he laughed at it.
— Lil Yachty
