Cars are clearly an important part of Abel’s self image—he’s so far referenced five specific models of car in the verses alone: ol li a P1 McLaren ; li a red Lamborghini Aventador SV Roadster ; li a Bentley Mulsanne ; li his mom’s new wagon ; and li the Rolls Royce Wraith . He also makes a less specific reference to cars in the pre-chorus. Additionally, Abel was featured on the Travis Scott track “Pray 4 Love,” from Scott’s debut album, Rodeo.
