Lil Yachty has taken on a Beanie Sigel traditional in his new collab with DontKallMeLuxxy, sampling “Feel It In The Air” for his newest monitor, “Sydney.”
Produced by Mitchgonemad and Wessgonemad, “Sydney” options parts of the 2005 track initially produced by the late Heavy D.
The monitor finds Yachty and DontKallMeLuxxy taking turns with two verses every, with Lil Boat paying homage to a pair of fellow ATLiens.
“Bitch, it’s jumbo, FN ten like Huncho/You fucked up yo’ face, now you the breakout star like Hunxho/Bitch want judge, you know I get right with you like Quavo Huncho,” he raps on the monitor.
Lil Yachty’s mentions of Quavo come simply after he revealed the previous Migos rapper was once “mean” to him after they first grew to become labelmates on Quality Control Music.
During a December episode of his A Safe Space podcast that includes the label’s co-founders Kevin “Coach K” Lee and Pierre “P” Thomas, the Atlanta rapper mentioned he was not solely embraced by the QC roster when he initially signed to the label.
“Quavo used to be so mean to me!” Yachty admitted. “It became like a friendly beef. It was like this thing of battling with me against all three Migos when it came to cars, when it came to jewelry, when it came to women, when it came to clothes, everything.
“Quavo got a new chain, I had to get a new chain. Offset got a new chain, I get a new chain. TakeOff get a new watch, I would go and get a new watch.”

He added: “I used to always feel like everyone was trying to little bro me. At first, they thought I was weird as shit. They was like, ‘This n-gga is weird as fuck.’”
Yachty revealed that he was such an outcast that few artists on the label wished to collaborate with him, aside from two folks.
“Skippa Da Flippa was the first person [to do a record with me] and he was the nicest person,” he continued. “Rich The Kid was cool, he showed love to me eventually. The most thing I remember was Quavo was mean as shit. Quavo was mean as hell, [but he] came around.
“I’ll never discredit Skippa Da Flippa and TakeOff. TakeOff, from the second he met me, was extremely nice and just welcoming with open arms. OG Maco, he didn’t really show much love either.”
