Alicia Keys and Brent Faiyaz are no strangers to collaborating. Earlier this summer, they worked on “GHETTO GATSBY” from the latter’s Wasteland album, which debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart, and now, they’ve reconnected for “Trillions” from the former’s new KEYS II deluxe cut.
“Ain’t gon’ let me down / Ain’t gon’ break my heart, baby,” the mother of two sings on the first verse. “Only gon’ love me back / Only gon’ fill me up, yeah, never gon’ f*ck it up, no way.”
Faiyaz – whose feature arrives after an appearance as himself on last night’s episode of Issa Rae’s Rap Shit – follows the R&B diva with some crooning of his own as he sings, “Someone, someone that could treat you right / Someone that could change your life / Tell me where you hiding / I promise I will find you, I will, for real.”
The new track premiered alongside an accompanying music video, which you can check out on YouTube above; tap back in with HNHH later for more music news updates.
Quotable Lyrics:
Ain’t gon’ let me down
Ain’t gon’ break my heart, baby
Only gon’ love me back
Only gon’ fill me up, yeah, never gon’ f*ck it up, no way
Definitely drive me wild
Definitely give me what I need
Never gon’ hold me back
Never gon’ be another, I can’t wait to love ya
