Gucci Mane Continues to Build Anticipation for ‘Everybody Looking’ With New Song “Waybach”

As the countdown to Gucci Mane’s Everybody Looking enters its final days, Gucci is keeping the gas pedal to the floor. He dropped the latest track from the project, “Waybach,” on Tuesday morning. The song is a love letter to his white-on-white Maybach, which he affectionately dubs a “Waybach.”

Mike WiLL Made-It and Zaytoven did a Reddit AMA Monday to answer fans’ questions about Everybody Looking, and during the session, Zay revealed “Waybach” was the song he was most proud of producing. “Once I heard the drums, I heard a certain hop in my head so I immediately jumped on the keyboard and started playing this Reggae tone that made the beat spectacular,” he said. “Then, Gucci laid his classic verses and hook on the track. It instantly was my favorite.” Zay was also a fan of Gucci’s proclamation that he would “rather rap on a Zay track than a Dre track.”

Meanwhile, Mike WiLL gave some insight into the general creation process of the album during the AMA. “We took songs, added new sounds, took sounds out, morphed it till we felt like it felt right,” he said. “[We] had so many different versions of each record, but it came out ill.”

Everybody Looking is due out on Friday. The album was recorded in the six days immediately following Gucci’s release from prison. It will include “Waybach,” along with the previously released tracks “All My Children,” “First Day Out Tha Feds,” “Guwop Home” featuring Young Thug, and “No Sleep (Intro).”
