The ’12 Million’ produced track features auto-tuned background vocals from Kanye and may have a familiar sounding beat for many hip-hop fans. The track, which samples Willie Hutch’s ‘Brother’s Gonna Work It Out’, sounds very similar to another recent Chicago rap track which samples the Hutch song in almost the same way, Chance The Rapper’s ‘Lost’. Compare the two tracks below.
