Atlanta rappers Gucci Mane and Raury have teamed up for a new track titled "Dead People," which you can check out below. The track moves along with a pretty gnarly electronic beat and some quirky synths, while Gucci delivers the hook and the first verse. Raury comes out on top, however, delivering a rapid-fire verse that totally brightens up the song's murky, relaxed tempo. As the single's artwork suggests (which you can check out above), the titular "Dead People" refer to hundred dollar bills with pictures of Ben Franklin on them, which can't accurately be called "dead presidents" since Franklin was never president.

If you haven't heard of Raury, don't feel bad: he's an 18-year-old up and comer whose full-length debut, Indigo Child, was just released on Aug. 25, but he was still named by Complex as one of 25 rappers to watch out for in 2014.
Despite the fact that Gucci is currently in prison (and will be there for a few years, on both weapons and assault charges), he's had a far more prolific 2014 than most musicians, incarcerated or not. This year alone, the 34-year-old rapper has released seven albums: The Purple Album with Young Thug, The White Album with Peewee Longway, The Green Album with Migos, Trap House Four, The Oddfather, Gucci vs. Guwop, and Brick Factory Volume II: Day Shift Night Shift.
As if seven albums wasn't enough, Gucci has also released six mixtapes: Young Thugga Mane La Flare with Young Thug, Brick Factory Volume One, I Am Trap, The Return of Mr. Perfect, Trap God 3, and Big Gucci Sosa with Chief Keef.
