Tyler, the Creator even lends his vocals to the single.

Solange's surprise album When I Get Home is the blessing we've all been waiting for, and her collaboration with Gucci Mane is the single we didn't know we desperately needed. The jazzy, melodic track is dripping with Gucci references as Solange take listeners on an instrumental journey. The rapper lends his laid back cadence on a verse while Tyler, the Creator adds additional vocals near the end of the song.

There's still no official word on whether or not Solange will reboot Black Planet after taking over the site in anticipation for When I Get Home's release. Still, fans are once again mesmerized by Solange's talents and When I Get Home is the follow-up to her 2016 release Seat at the Table that shows she's elevated as an artist and creator.

"Y’all! I’m filled w so much joy right now!!!," Solange tweeted about the album's release. "Wow! I can’t thank y’all enough for this moment and for all the feelings I feel in my body! I’m bringing home [with] me everywhere I go [y'all] and I ain’t running from s**t no more. Your love lifts me up so high. Thank you!"

Quotable Lyrics

Gucci like to slang, Gucci like to bang
Gucci like to come down, he go hard in the paint
Gucci like to swang, Gucci like to sway
Gucci like to come down, and he start just any day
