As R-Mean gears up for a new chapter in his career, he’s unveiled his brand new single, “Charles Barkley” ft. YG, produced by Scott Storch. The follow-up to “Lonely Day” is a vibrant West Coast banger that brings together the Los Angeles spirit to life, while jokingly playing homage to Chuck as YG raps, “Imma be old without a ring, Charles Barkley.” Storch’s infectious production merges dizzying flutes and looming bass for YG and R-Mean’s unmatched chemistry.
“He’s been the face of authentic West Coast music for a decade,” R-Mean said of YG in a statement. “Being from LA as well, it’s been an honour to get in the studio with him. Creating something that will undoubtedly bring the LA sound back to the clubs.”However, R-Mean credits the “Lean Back” producer for creating the soundscape that helped mesh his chemistry with YG on wax. “Scott Storch gave us the perfect backdrop where our respective styles could both shine,” he added. Storch will handle the production of R-Mean’s upcoming album, M.E.A.N., due out on April 14th.

[Intro]
(Scott Storch)
[Chorus: YG]
See me without the goons? Nigga, hardly
I wear this Glock like it’s fashion, Ed Hardy
Never fall for a bitch, not Polly
I’ma be old, out a Range, Charles Barkley
[Verse 1: YG]
I be poppin’ tags, you poppin’ molly’s
We don’t hang with opps, I’m with my brothers, like the Isley’s
Siamese, that pussy tight (That pussy tight)
Too much dead loaf, I’ll get you whacked, don’t try me
Hundred-K in a Range Rover, too much, they look
Don’t let that money change you, nigga, stay woke
Pacquiao, fight them cases, ’til it’s case closed
Bankroll out the bank, woah
[Chorus: YG & R-Mean]
See me without the goons? Nigga, hardly
I wear this Glock like it’s fashion, Ed Hardy
Never fall for a bitch, not Polly
I’ma be old, out a Range, Charles Barkley
See me without the goons? Nigga, hardly
I wear this Glock like it’s fashion, Ed Hardy (Bah-bah)
Never fall for a bitch, not Polly (Never)
I’ma be old, out a Range, Charles Barkley (Yeah, yeah)
[Verse 2: R-Mean]
Jealousy in my city, ’cause we makin’ commas (Bands)
Plus, it’s [?], rappin’ baby mamas (Woo)
Fuckin’, with nothin’ but chains and my Rollie on (Rollie)
In my city, I’m a king, yeah, they know the Don (Boss)
R-Mean, baby, who you ridin’ with? (R-Dash)
I ain’t never tell a bitch I love her, just to try to hit (Nah)
I ain’t even try to fuck with drama, on a broke bitch (Nah)
On the rise, like coke prices durin’ Covid (Coca)
Yeah, we want all the smoke, Bob Marley (Grrah, grrah)
Walk up in the spot, drippin’, like an Ivy (Woo)
Welcome to the West, West, Mean and YG
4Hunnid, hoes love it, ooh-wee
[Chorus: YG]
See me without the goons? Nigga, hardly
I wear this Glock like it’s fashion, Ed Hardy
Never fall for a bitch, not Polly
I’ma be old, out a Range, Charles Barkley
See me without the goons? Nigga, hardly
I wear this Glock like it’s fashion, Ed Hardy
Never fall for a bitch, not Polly
I’ma be old, out a Range, Charles Barkley
[Outro: R-Mean]
