Kanye West finally dropped the official version of the packed posse track “Champions” over the weekend. The long-awaited Cruel Winter single from the expected G.O.O.D. music label compilation popped up on Tidal and Apple Music and features Gucci Mane, Big Sean, Yo Gotti, Travis Scott and 2 Chainz, as well as Quavo of the Migos and Desiigner.
West premiered the song earlier this month, raising hopes for the release later this year of the sequel to the 2012 Cruel Summer compilation. The five-and-a-half-minute track — which ‘Ye has promised to release in a 12-15 minuter version — features production from A-Trak and Lex Luger.
