Tyler can be heard rapping, “Lil bunny hop out, you seen me at the pop out / Pandemonium screaming like they brought Pac out / Stop it with the chit chat we airing out the kickback / Big stud energy the way I get my lick back / Hey now say now I’m all about my bands / Shit I’m on bitch you wouldn’t understand.”
Tyler announced the surprise freestyle remix by responding to an old post a fan tagged him in asking him to freestyle “Hey Now.” He responds with, “merry christmas. had fun with it,” linking out to the music video for “That Guy.” Watch the music video and listen to the freestyle above or below.
