Rising rap/R&B star Ty Dolla $ign is currently gearing up to release his star-studded, debut album Free TC, but there's another collaboration in the works that's even more exciting. The performer offered some background vocals on Kanye West and Paul McCartney's collaborative song "Only One," but he's now suggested that there's more work with the pair on the way.

In a recent interview with Billboard, Ty explained that he teamed up with Kanye for two days of recording last September. In that time, they completed approximately nine songs. One of them is a track that features the pair working alongside Paul McCartney and Rihanna.

"Me, Rihanna, 'Ye and Paul got a song about to drop as well," he said. "It's gonna drop soon. I heard they shot the video recently. I don't know what the final tital is, but I know it's crazy so just be looking out for [it]."

As for his recording session with Kanye, Ty explains that it was both rushed and productive. "He was open to my input, like, 'do whatever you want to do. Here's your mic. Do you need anything?'" Ty recalls. "I'm like 'Awesome! Let's get it!'"

 Free TC is expected to arrive in either March or April, and will feature appearances from YG, R. Kelly, Kendrick Lamar and more.
