#NewVideo: Anderson .Paak Takes Us to School with Rick Ross in “CUT EM IN”

Giving us comedy, dancing, and good vibes, Anderson .Paak and Rick Ross enjoy themselves back in school. Friends are how many people get through a lot of things, but on the same side, enemies can help drive passion and success as well. While speaking on that, the artists are ultimately celebrating in the video, and throughout the song.

“Sometimes you need a friend, Not the ones that just show up and don’t put nothin’ in/ You know the ones that lend a hand and wanna see you win, When you come up on a lick, make sure you cut ’em in/ And then, huh, Sometimes you need a foe (You need a foe), One that keep your eyes open, keep you on your toes/ You know the ones that wanna keep you where you been before, But I can’t go (No, I can’t go), no, I can’t go (No, I can’t go)”
