For a man who presumably spends 50% of his time in a strip club and the remaining hours of the day blunted into oblivion, the inimitable Juicy J gets a lot done.

He’s already clocked up stacks of features this year, and, in the shape of ‘Bands A Make Her Dance’, had a proper Hit on his hands. More recently, he’s traded verses with Twista, and was a recurrent sideman on Wiz Khalifa’s recent Cabin Fever 2 mixtape. New track ‘Know Betta’, featuring a distinctive vocal interpolation from Abel “The Weeknd’ Tesfaye, sees him continuing to grind.

‘Know Betta”s not the first time the Juice has worked with/on Tesfaye: ‘Codeine Cups’ featured a slo-mo’d version of ‘The Morning’, whereas Echoes Of Silence boasted a brief but memorable cameo from the rapper. This time around, Juicy J spits over a mangled version of Echoes Of Silence cut ‘Montreal’. ‘Know Betta’ sees Memphis’ finest on typically self-aggrandising form, bragging about street beef and multi-tasking behind the wheel. Khalifa, meanwhile, is parachuted in for a deft sing-song verse. [via Hypetrak]
