Yesterday we were treated to a preview of Lana Del Rey’s appearance on The KickDrums’ mixtape track “Ridin'”, featuring A$AP Rocky. The full song was expected to be released today as part of the group’s new mixtape Follow The Leader, but a last minute complication has nixed the song from the tape. “Had to pull the Lana – A$AP track due to label reasons,” the KickDrums wrote on their Twitter. “Song got too big too fast. Gonna explain in more detail in an interview today.”

He elaborated a bit more: “A$AP wants the track for his album. Its as much his and lana’s music as it is ours so we have to respect that.”

When someone asked why the track was pulled “1 second before [the mixtape] was released”, they shot back, “Bc i literally didn’t know till 30 mins ago.”

If you’re interested in a Lana-less Follow The Leader, you can still pick it up right here.
