Layton Greene enrolls at Quality Control University in the official video for her new single, “Leave Em Alone.” On hand for the fun-filled extracurricular activities of the QCU freshman class are label mates Lil Baby, City Girls and PnB Rock. Zain Alexander Shammas (DVBBS, TM88) directed the vibrant clip, which was shot in Atlanta.
Greene went to #1 on YouTube Music’s “R&B on the Rise” playlist after the May release of “Leave Em Alone” ft. Lil Baby, City Girls and PnB Rock (Quality Control Music/Level’D Up/Motown Records). Cumulative streams of the track have already surpassed 25 million.
Lil Baby recently brought Greene, Yung Miami and PnB on stage to perform “Leave Em Alone” during his BET weekend set at Staples Center.
The 20-year-old vocalist, who was born in East St. Louis, became a viral sensation when she put her own spin on Kodak Black’s “Roll in Peace” and uploaded the homemade video to social media. Heartened by the incredible response she received, Greene went in the studio with producer G-Styles to record an extended version of the song. “Roll In Piece Remix” gained over 3.5 million plays on SoundCloud in the first month and jumped into the Top 15 of Billboard’s Hot R&B Songs chart. After quitting her restaurant day job, Greene began to focus full-time on her music. Combined global streams of her songs now exceed 300 million – including more than 80 million streams for “Myself,” an original song, and 15 million streams for her remake of Lil Baby’s “Close Friends,” which topped SoundCloud’s R&B chart earlier this year.
‘Leave Em Alone’ Lyrics:
[Intro: PnB Rock]
Hitmaka
Oh, I see
Girl, you out here tryna be my wifey
Wan’ me eat that pussy like it’s ice cream
Bet you ain’t met a nigga like me
[Verse 1: Layton Greene]
No need to say what I been through
He already know what I’m into
He be reading my mind like it’s simple
Got him banging my line like it’s his too
Never got a word ’bout no issues
He pay it on time when the rent due
Made him ice out my neck and the wrist too
Hold down your pussy and your pistol (Let him know, girl)
[Pre-Chorus: PnB Rock]
I see
Girl, you out here tryna be my wifey
Wan’ me eat that pussy like it’s ice cream
Bet you ain’t met a **** like me
[Chorus: Layton Greene]
I can’t leave ’em alone
Try to change my ways, but the dope boy turnin’ me on
Trap niggas know what I want
So caught up that I can’t leave ’em alone (Can’t leave ’em alone)
Try to change my ways, but the dope boy turnin’ me on
Trap niggas know what I want
So caught up that I can’t leave ’em alone
[Verse 2: Lil Baby]
Why you tryna leave me alone?
I’m a D-boy, you know that come with doin’ you wrong
Nah, I’m playin’, you should know that we been in this too long
And all your friends really wish that they was on what we on
Girl, you know I got that deep stroke, that heart skip a beat stroke
That put us both to sleep stroke, forget about him, he broke
Serious as they come, I don’t play no jokes
Middle of the winter, I’ll give that ass a heatstroke, yeah (Let ’em know)
[Pre-Chorus: PnB Rock]
I see
Girl, you out here tryna be my wifey
Wan’ me eat that pussy like it’s ice cream
Bet you ain’t met a **** like me
[Chorus: Layton Greene]
I can’t leave ’em alone
Try to change my ways, but the dope boy turnin’ me on
Trap niggas know what I want
So caught up that I can’t leave ’em alone (Can’t leave ’em alone)
Try to change my ways, but the dope boy turnin’ me on
Trap niggas know what I want
So caught up that I can’t leave ’em alone
[Verse 3: Yung Miami]
Jackrabbit when he put the dick in it
How you nut and you barely put the tip in it?
Sixty seconds, got him gone, that’s a quick minute
He ain’t never felt some pussy with some grip in it
Hair done, nails done like a bad bitch
Niggas turned me to a savage
I can’t fuck him if he average
Way more bad than your last bitch (Period)
[Chorus: Layton Greene]
I can’t leave ’em alone
Try to change my ways, but the dope boy turnin’ me on
Trap niggas know what I want
So caught up that I can’t leave ’em alone (Can’t leave ’em alone)
Try to change my ways, but the dope boy turnin’ me on
Trap niggas know what I want
So caught up that I can’t leave ’em alone
[Outro: Hitmaka]
I swear we not tryin’
Ayy, yo, 4Rest, let’s go grab homegirl from the front, you know what I’m sayin’?
‘Cause, uh
