It has to be close to a year since we first heard rumblings of the Metro Thuggin' project. The combination of Young Thug and Metro Boomin' was enticing. Then we got 'The Blanguage' which was supposed to be just a warm-up track. The wait continues, but we're two tracks closer with the release of 'Speed Racer' and "Warrior' tonight.
In December, a lot of Young Thug (and Rich Homie Quan) songs leaked. One of the stand-outs was 'Warrior' which features Thug's zany, unorthodox lyrics at their most infectious. "If a nigga think he better than me with the heater, I sho wanna meet 'em," he fast raps on the song's chorus. If you did grab the leaked version last month, you'll find that the new official one is a little different. Some additional ad-libs are included and then an outro that slows things down for the last two minutes. Check it out.
Today, Thug and Metro also announced their Rodeo tour along with Travi$ Scott. Let's hope this flurry of activity brings them close enough to decide on a date for Metro Thuggin'.
