AceShowbiz - You can add DJ Khaled's new single to your summer playlist. As he's readying his upcoming album "Major Key", the producer/rapper has reunited with Drake for the catchy lead cut "F**k Me for Free" or simply "For Free".
Arriving Friday, June 3 via Apple Music, the track includes a sample of Too Short's "Blow the Whistle" and kicks off with Drizzy rapping the same opening line, "I go on and on/ Can't understand how I lasted so long/ I must have the superpowers."
He also gives a shout-out to Kendrick Lamar as he spits, "And like ya boy for Compton said, you know this d**k ain't free." Khaled delivers his own verse towards the end of the song, talking about his enemies who "don't want me to have another anthem/ So I made sure I got another anthem."
"For Free" isn't Khaled's first time to have collaborated with Drake as they previously appeared together on tracks like "No New Friends" and "I'm on One". "To work with Drake is always a special moment for me," the 40-year-old DJ said of teaming up with the Toronto native in an interview with Zane Lowe. "And I'm very grateful for it."
Of his new single, Khaled's sure it would be his next classic. "It's gonna be every female's favorite record and every hustler's favorite record," he boasted. "When Drake and Khaled come together, it's always the biggest anthems."
No release date has been set for "Major Key", but it's been revealed that the record will also feature collaborations with Lil Wayne, Big Sean, Rick Ross, Kanye West, Bryson Tiller, Jay-Z and Future.
