Quavo and Ty Dolla $ign Team Up for a New Track
On Friday, Quavo and Ty Dolla $ign joined forces with Brian Tyler’s Are We Dreaming to release “If I Fall,” a futuristic rock-rap song for the upcoming Transformers One soundtrack.
“I’m in my prime, Optimus (Optimus), I’m goin’ big, Megatron,” Quavo raps in one part of the song. “I’ma sting, Bumblebee, now crown the king, hope you proud of me.”
The song, featuring Tyler’s chorus vocals, will play during the closing credits of the animated movie set to release on September 20. The film has a star-studded voice cast including Chris Hemsworth, Brian Tyree Henry, Scarlett Johansson, Keegan-Michael Key, and Steve Buscemi.
Tyler explained, “I started writing the song ‘If I Fall’ as a personal way to both express my gratitude to those who truly lifted me up when I fell down in life and a rebuke of those who turned away. This concept is the core story of Transformers One, so it’s a synergistic song.”
He also expressed his excitement over the collaboration, “I was blessed to have both Quavo and Ty Dolla $ign contribute their incredible vocals to the track — it turned out so dope!” Tyler has composed music for many big films like Fast and Furious, The Super Mario Bros. Movie, Crazy Rich Asians, and several Marvel movies.
Fans love seeing Ty and Quavo work together again. They previously teamed up on tracks like “Long Time” from Ty’s 2016 album Free TC, “Pineapple” with Gucci Mane on Beach House 3, and “Trap Paris” with Machine Gun Kelly in 2017. They also worked with Chase B and Travis Scott on “Ring Ring” last year.
It’s clear that people enjoy their collaborations.
Ty also worked with Quavo’s former group, Migos, on “White Sand” from Culture II in 2018 and on “?? (Where)” from Ty’s 2016 album Campaign.
