Quavo has officially announced a release date for his Lana Del Rey collaboration that has been teased for some months now.
Taking to Instagram with a Polaroid showing Lana putting his chain on for him, the former Migos rapper revealed “Tough” will touch down on Wednesday (July 3), though his caption read “Tough 4th Of July.”
The unlikely pair were spotted attending a Grammys party together earlier this year, and it appeared that their linking up had to do with the forthcoming song.
Back in May, the two shared a snippet of the then-unnamed song in a joint Instagram post, along with a photo of them on a front porch with the caption: “If u come from where u come then u were born….Tough!”

Lana Del Rey is no stranger to working with rappers. Back in 2017, she recruited The Weeknd for “Lust for Life,” which featured on her album of the same name. On that same album, she worked with Playboi Carti and A$AP Rocky on “Summer Bummer.”
She also collaborated with The Weeknd on two of his songs, “Stargirl Interlude” from his 2016 album Starboy and “Prisoner” from his 2015 LP Beauty Behind the Madness.
As for her Grammy outing with Quavo, the “Candy Necklace” singer and “Bad and Boujee” rapper were seen cozying up together in the back of car while arriving to a get-together at The Fleur Room in West Hollywood, California.
While they weren’t seen holding hands, the duo seemed to enjoy each other’s company as they both sported beaming smiles. After getting out of their ride, Quavo took the lead with Lana following just a few steps behind.
Since then, Quavo has been embroiled in a battle with Chris Brown after the latter dissed him for allegedly dating Karrueche Tran.
After exchanging multiple songs back-and-forth, Karrueche herself weighed in on the matter — and she wants to stay out of the middle of their mess.
“I don’t feel. It is what it is. I’m living my life,” she said in response to a question of how she felt about the diss tracks. “Working, paying my bills, taking time for myself and that’s all that matters. Whatever else is going on, I ain’t got nothing to do with it. I’m living a peaceful life. That’s all I want.”
She added: “I just don’t want any parts, I just want peace and happiness. I want to work and thrive.”
