So here’s the back story on this bad boy: It was originally recorded for The Kickdrums’ Follow the Leaders project, but never made the final cut because Rocky wanted to keep it for his album. Finally, fans are treated to the long-awaited collab.

Two A$AP/Lana meetings in two days? We’re not complaining. Stream it below. LiveLoveA$AP drops September 11th.

Production duo The KickDrums released their new mixtape, Follow the Leaders today (download here).  The tape features guest spots from MGK, Freddie Gibbs, Casey Veggies and more, but one highly anticipated track was left off.  To the surprise and disappointment of many, the track “Ridin'” which teams up Lana Del Rey and A$AP Rocky was left off.

The track was pulled at the last second due to some “label reasons” according to The KickDrums’ Twitter page, but we do still have a preview.  If the preview and tweet below are any indication, then it looks like we missed out on something fire.
