Unveiling the first collaboration between the Mableton, Georgia native, Lil Yachty and the Beaumont, Texas native Teezo Touchdown,
“the ride-” features the two originally contrasting artists coming together for a chill, psychedelic pop song in which the duo sings about the effects of the social stratification, leading the two to feel as though they’re on a “ride.”
The song’s lyrics make a particular reference to the social stratification system as the artists note that as they make their way up the system — “the ride” being used as a metaphor for their journey. This is particularly pointed out in Teezo’s first verse — it also makes a direct reference to the album’s cover art of important-looking people with their eyes closed.
Despite the album’s impressive rollout, prior to its official release, “the ride-” — alongside the other thirteen songs — was unfortunately leaked in its entirety in December 2022 which Yachty responded with a now-deleted Tweet.
