Things ain’t always what they seem. YG gets candid with fellow Compton MC Kendrick Lamar on “Really Be (Smokin N Drinkin).” On the introspective cut, produced by Ty Dolla $ign, YG opens up about the pressures in his life—from providing for his family to protecting himself.

“If I don’t make it with this rap shit, ni**a, I might be homeless,” he confesses, while K-Dot gets real about his past.

“Meanwhile, I’m grindin’ ’cause drug money ain’t like rap money / Four white kilos, snow bunny, equals one whole show, dummy,” he raps.

YG’s debut My Krazy Life drops March 18 featuring Drake, ScHoolboy Q, Jay Rock, Rich Homie Quan, and more.

Listen to their confessional cut below.
