'Ride for You': Meek Mill and Kehlani track keeps 'classic singer, rapper combo alive'
Meek Mill was all over the Internet on Friday after he dropped his fifth studio album ‘Expensive Pain’. The latest offering by the Philadelphia native saw features from Lil Uzi Vert, Lil Durk, Lil Baby, Kehlani, A$AP Ferg, Moneybagg Yo, and Young Thug. However, it was singer-songwriter Kehlani’s collaboration that made a lot of noise amongst music lovers.
Kehlani is featured on a song called ‘Ride For You’ which is part of the album’s official tracklist. The 26-year-old crooner lent her vocals on the chorus and the outro of the song which got a special mention on Twitter. While social media users bumped Meek Mill’s new full-length album, they also gave a shoutout to Kehlani’s feature which proved to be a surprise hit. Mill’s latest album is a follow-up to his 2018 record ‘Championships’.

Kehlani’s feature gets the Internet talking
The sixth track on Mill’s album ‘Expensive Pain’ sees both Kehlani and Meek Mill jumping on the chorus. The latter takes care of the adlibs while the songstress evokes right emotions as she croons, “Baby, you, oh, you were made for me (You know, you know)/ Hit my phone, I'ma be there instantly (You know, you know)/ I pray for us (I pray, I pray), pray your heart I'll always keep (You know, you know, I pray my mother**kin' soul to keep)/ Just know I'ma ride for you, baby (I'ma ride), slide for you, baby, just say you got me (Yeah)."
The ‘Tupac Back’ hitmaker then hops on to the first verse as he spits, “But I'll kill for the love of the love you and I built/ It's ride or die still/ Your bills turnin' into my bills, s**t done got real/ It's not fake, every other day another sky date.” Kehlani’s vocals again manage to serenade the listeners as the chorus is repeated on the track. Speaking of features, Young Thug too got a shoutout from the Internet for his verse on ‘We Slide’.
