Tapping up Kanye West, Juicy J has today revealed his new single, 'Ballin'. Premiered on Zane Lowe's Beats 1 radio show, it comes hot on the heels of the Three-6-Mafia co-creator's latest mixtape, #MustBeNice.

Looking to find a home on Juicy J's upcoming new album, Rubba Band Business: The Album, the braggadocios trap banger is perfect for those looking for a soundtrack to play while swimming in their vaults of money Scrooge McDuck style. Over an undeniable bounce, if lyrics like, "I'm too hot, hot air balloon/ Own star, I'm on another planet/ I just joined a Fortune 500 and I'm in the boardroom in my pyjamas," don't get you rushing to the nearest cashpoint to draw out all of your funds to throw around your living room carefree, then it's highly unlikely that anything ever will.

Adding to his crazy hectic schedule, Kanye West as of late has been a man in demand - when is he ever not? Aside from collaborating with Juicy J on 'Ballin', he also popped up on Francis and the Lights' new song 'My City's Gone'. He also performed at Chance the Rapper's Magnificent Colouring Day festival in Chicago.


The video for 'Ballin' will premiere via Tidal tomorrow (29 Sept).
