Offset has released his new album, GMFU, and it's jam packed with an all-star cast of featured guests — listen to it here.
Released on Friday (November 13), the 18-song project — the title of which is short for Got Me Fucked Up — follows singles "Something I Need" and "Every Night," the Don Toliver-assisted track that samples Jodeci's "Freek'n You."
On the album opener, "R4W," which features Quavo, hears Offset reference the shooting that put him in hospital after an attempted robbery earlier this year. "Shots got fired (Fah, fah) / Fuck it, I'm hit (Fuck it, I'm hit) / Red in my eyes (Red in my eyes) / I'm tryna blitz (I'm tryna blitz)," he begins. "Who let off the shot? (Baow, baow) / I told 'em no snitch (I told 'em no snitch) / He shot with his eyes closed (Baow, baow) / I knew you a bitch (I knew you was a ho)."
Quavo appears twice on the album. In addition to "R4W," he also features on "Why Not" with Loe Shimmy.
The two features add to a reunion that's been playing out in public. Offset went to Quavo's QRÖMELIFE release party in L.A. in September and is featured on that album. On DJ Whoo Kid's SiriusXM Shade 45 show Tuesday (November 10), Offset said the two had been talking "for a long time" before reuniting publicly.
"We had to heal behind the scenes, which we still ain't heal but we had to heal behind the scenes," he said.
In September, Quavo spoke on the pair reuniting to put out one "final" Migos album. "We coming back," Quavo told DJ Greg Street. "We're going to do it one more time."
Elsewhere on GMFU, Gunna jumps on "Spit Propane," Tommy Richman joins "One Way Flight," ApolloRed1 and OsamaSon team up on "Misfits!," and Larissa Lambert closes the album on "Hating On Me."
