It was a mighty fine New Music Friday for R&B lovers this weekend, with new projects arriving from Ravyn Lenae with HYPNOS, Mahalia’s Letter To Ur Ex, and AUGUST 08, who shared the 7-track Towards The Sun, which saw just one feature from ScHoolboy Q on “Cutlass.”
The nearly three-and-a-half minute long song kicks off with the R&B singer expressing his interest in a woman, singing “Damn, lips glossy, on ten / Baby trippin’, leave your friends downstairs tonight / Brown eyes, thick thighs, camera runnin’ in the corner / Friends watchin’ like it’s televised.”
For his turn, Q cooly raps, “Said she never made love, but she never met me / Double M backed up, plenty room in backseat / F*ckin’ up your makeup when I dive in all deep / You the one that bring peace, tell your friends ‘Move, lady.'”

Quotable Lyrics:
In a cutlass with my cousins
Head turned ’cause you out here just shinin’
Bust a U-turn in the far lane
Dropped the 40 ’cause her ass got a n*gga wildin’
