After seven years, 2 Chainz and Lil Wayne are ready to deliver the sequel to 2016’s COLLEGROVE. Today (Oct. 20), they liberated the official artwork for Welcome 2 Collegrove, which will consist of 21 tracks from the veteran collaborators. In addition to the trippy album cover (one that merges their faces together), fans are also able to check out a new single from the forthcoming release titled “Presha,” a Bangladesh-produced offering that sees Weezy delivering clever lines about everything from women to guns.
“Pressure busts pipes, the weapon talk nice, I only bust twice, but I’m so precise, the foreign run nice, I’m whorin’ all night, I don’t handcuff her and I read her, her rights, I’m on that pressure, she on that bass, I’m on that treble, I’m on her level, she say her brother, he got them birds, we ruffle his feathers, watch what you tell us, pressure cooker…”

As REVOLT previously reported, 2 Chainz provided some details on the work that went into bringing his and Weezy’s long-awaited effort to fruition. “We’ve already shot two visuals, the photo shoot is over. We’re in the process now of mastering records. All the records are mixed, so it’ll be coming soon,” he said to The Source back in September. “I’m so excited about it and I’ve been talking about it so long. I’m anxious at this point to try to get it to the fans’ ears, [so they can] hear some of the hard work and the blood, sweat, and tears that me and my brother put into this project.”
In addition to Welcome 2 Collegrove, Wayne is said to be cooking up other bodies of work including I Am Not a Human Being III and Tha Carter VI. A few weeks ago, the New Orleans legend liberated Tha Fix Before Tha VI, an appetizer of sorts led by the single “Kat Food.” Check out “Presha” below.
