Thankfully, it didn’t take too long before we received one of the promised joint records.
On Thursday night, Travis released his new single called “Watch,” featuring Kanye and Lil Uzi. Though the Houston rapper announced the track just hours before it hit streaming services, it was still unclear if this song was the rumored ‘Ye x Uzi collaboration.
The cover art did not indicate any featured guests; however, Apple Music confirmed the rumors on the “Travis Scott Essentials” playlist.
