YG Releases First Single "Twist My Fingaz" From New Album 'Still Krazy'

Last month, YG announced Still Krazy as the title for his new album and today (July 16), he dropped off the project's first single, "Twist My Fingaz."

Over Terrace Martin production, which includes a sample of George Clinton's "One Nation Under A Groove," the Compton rapper calls out his West Coast counterparts and spits bars about a recent shooting at a Los Angeles-area recording studio.

"I really got something to say, I'm the only one that made it out the West without Dre / the only one that's really bout what he say, the only one that got hit and was walking the same day."

In June, it was reported that the "Who Do You Love" rapper was shot three times in the hip. Shortly thereafter, he decided to open up about the situation and even revealed the title for his new album during an interview with Billboard.

"I left the hospital that night, and the next day I went back to the studio," he said. "Nobody wanted me to go. My mama tells me, 'What are you talking about "going to the studio?"' But you know, I got sh*t to do - this sh*t don't stop for nobody. I came straight to the studio on my little crutches."

Aside from working on his album, YG is gearing up to perform at Toronto's Molson Canadian Amphitheatre on Aug. 2 as a part of J. Cole's Forest Hills Drive tour and Drake's OVO Fest. Big Sean, Jeremih, Bas, Cozz and Omen are also slated to hit the stage.
