“Jay always been one of my favorite rappers,” said Gotti. “When he told me he was watching what I was doing, I thought that was some cool shit. I was like, I respect your hustle, I respect what you’re doing. I’m a hustler and I think we got the same vision when it comes to diversifying hustlers. The way I see it, it’s just expansion.”

Earlier today, Gotti unleashed his new single “Castro” featuring Kanye West, Big Sean, 2 Chainz, and Quavo off his upcoming album White Friday, due Dec. 23.
