'He sleep with a Spanish bi— in the club/ Bro knowin' Spanglish, that's good enough/ Wе took an hour out of the after-hours just to f— up all the ones/ I got a bunch, you ain't doin' brunch,' Scott raps.
The second part of the woozy bar could be a reference to a strip club-fueled night out or La Flame invading The Weeknd and Playboi Carti's After Hours Til Dawn Tour stop in Los Angeles.
As for the colorful visual, Scott and the crew head down to Texas while burning rubber and spinning out in exotic sports cars and supercharged Ford trucks. They even hit an F1 race to take in some professional action.
This is only a taste of what's to come with JB2. Scott has been sending out custom JACKBOYS Lamborghinis to artists' driveways who are slated to appear on the album. The list includes GloRilla, Tyla, Vybz Kartel, 21 Savage, Kodak Black, SahBabii and Waka Flocka Flame.
Travis Scott has also released a limited-edition JACKBOYS 2 merchandise collection, along with various CD and vinyl bundles featuring alternate covers for the project. According to the Cactus Jack honcho's website, JB2 will boast seven tracks and is slated to arrive later in July.
