Philly’s Young Chris and Wale connect for a bar-fest on their new collaboration.

Wale and Young Chris get reflecting on the ruthless environments they were surrounded by on their latest record, “Yellow Flag.” Swapping verses every few bars, the pair of rappers deliver an introspective record as they detail everything from poverty to issues with women. DJ Money and Super Miles cook up a soulful beat with a touch of 90s R&B for the rappers to go in on. Though Wale carries a triumphant tone in parts of the song, the song is ultimately filled with moments of pain. Young Chris shows moments of vulnerability and anger as he details the commonality of death, the cause-and-effect of street violence, and trying to make it out. Overall, it’s a record for the purest with Wale and Young Chris showcasing their penmanship before anything else.

Check out their new collaboration below.

Quotable Lyrics
Knee deep in the trenches, fiends stickin’ syringes
For my ninjas in the yard where they barbwire the fences
I’mma kill every guard and position in a witness
Just need the drop for the exact location, attack formation
Send ’em to maintenance, leavin’ vacant while vacationin’
That’s what happens when you leak information
