The first posthumous album from XXXTentacion, Skins is set come out on Dec. 7th and the only artist making a guest appearance on it is Kanye West (see tracklist here).
On Tuesday, several songs from the album, including the duo’s collaboration, ‘One Minute’ surfaced online. This particular track is not what we were expecting as it’s a full on rock tune with a loud guitar riff prominently featured all through. Kanye starts off the song with nearly 1 and a half minutes long of rapping after which XXX comes through with a head-banging chorus, “One minute, one minute, gone. One minute and the next one’s mine. One minute, one minute, gone.”
Kanye’s verse is worth noting too as towards the end of it, he seems to be alluding to the domestic abuse charges against XXX by his ex-girlfriend Geneva. Although the charges against X have been dropped following his death, his name had been “tainted” by the accusations, according to his fans.
“She wanna give you the cookie, you Famous Amos
She gave you the p*ssy, but you ain’t pay for the an*s
Now your name is tainted, by the claims they paintin’
The defendant is guilty, no one blames the plaintiff”
The song will be available on all streaming services on Friday, Dec. 7th. XXXTentacion Foundation and EMPIRE will host an official SKINS Album Release Party at RC Cola Plant in Miami, FL on Thursday. The concert will feature DJ Carnage, London On Da Track, Trippie Redd, DJ Scheme, Ski Mask The Slump God, PnB Rock, Matt OX, Members Only and surprise guests. Fans can buy tickets here.
