Tez McClain ft. Erk Tha Jerk - Right Now

"Ni@@as dying from thirst/tricking heels here/purse there/half-a$$ing this rap sh#t/okay line here/cool verse there"
The south side of Atlanta and Richmond, CA connect as Tez McClain and Erk Tha Jerk go in over an LT mOE (Trey Songz, Ludacris) beat for a potential smash. "Right Now" finds Erk and Tez in full club mode, but as fans have come to expect from emcees of their caliber, they drop a few lyrical gems along the way. The chemistry was so on point during the recording process that they are thinking about doing a full collaborative mixtape in the near future.
