A couple of weeks ago, Jhené Aiko surprised fans with a new song and visual titled “While We’re Young,” her first official release since last year’s “Maniac” (she also collaborated with 6LACK this past February). For her latest, she delivers another single titled “Hello Ego,” which sees her trading beautiful sounds with Chris Brown. As the title suggests, Aiko gets dominant on the record:

I just do what I feel like, I don’t deal with no logic
I need to chill, I really need to chill, I need to stop it
Need to stop it now, stop it now
And yeah, I know I’m supposed to be about my money
‘Cause that baby gotta eat when she get hungry
And anything my family need they get it from me
So when s*** get ugly
I can’t stop, I won’t stop, I don’t

Chris Brown uses the track to express his own reality as well, speaking on his image, being in jail and (possibly) his very public relationship “problems”:

They call me crazy, it’s okay, yeah I got issues
I wear my heart like my tattoos
I shed my tears, f*** the tissues
Gave me a year, my first sentence?
Judge, don’t care ‘bout accomplishments
Give a f*** ’bout a Grammy
‘Cause, a jail cell ain’t got limo tints
When I got out back on their ass with a number one hit
Hoes ain’t loyal, no these bitches ain’t s***
It’s me that can’t keep a relationship

Enjoy “Hello Ego” below…word on the street that a new album — tentatively titled TRIP 17 — is on the horizon.
