Hit-Boy & James Fauntleroy Connect On The Breezy New Cut "That's What I Get"

Hit-Boy ft. James Fauntleroy - "That's What I Get"

Hit-Boy and James Fauntleroy are amongst the industry's most coveted helping hands when it comes to production and songwriting. Cumulatively, they've sold millions, penning blockbuster cuts for the likes of Justin Timberlake, Rihanna, Jay Z, Kanye West, Frank Ocean and just about every A-lister under the damn sun. But what happens when you put two hit-makers on one breezy cut? "That's What I Get" seems to be the answer. Built over a playful vocal trills and Stevie Wonder-esque whistles, the megaton duo craft a lighthearted lament over the hit-or-miss nature of picking out a dime, certainly in the vein of Hov's "Girls, Girls, Girls" but with a more minimal approach, scrapping the lusciousness in favor of big drums and an equally formidable hook, a perfect compliment either of their massive catalogs.

No word on where they'll place it just yet, but you can hear Hit-Boy & James Fauntleroy connect on "That's What I Get below. Take the single home with you by hitting iTunes to cop and hold tight for the next transmission in the weeks and months ahead, especially from Fauntleroy, who proves to be as prolific as anyone in the game, dropping cool and tender loosies on a semi-weekly basis.
