H.E.R. teams with rapper YBN Cordae for her sensual new single Racks. Throughout the track, the R&B singer croons a classic money cant buy happiness message over a trap beat and airy guitar riff: All of your racks and things/They dont relax your pain, she observes.
Cordae explores the same themes in his smooth verse. My infatuation with these bags Im facin/Got a couple dollars so congratulations/Tryna find love, so Im navigatin/Shower you with gifts, oversaturation, he rap-sings. But I cant seem to find love without the ratchet shit/This gold dream of mine, why am I attached to this?
In February, H.E.R. won two Grammy Awards at the 2019 ceremony: Best R&B Album for her self-titled compilation LP and Best R&B Performance for the track Focus; she also earned nominations for Album of the Year, Best New Artist and Best R&B Song. Two months later, she appeared onThe Late Show for an emotional performance of her song Hard Place, which appears on her November 2018 EP, I Used to Know Her: Part 2.
