Rich Homie Quan was the guest feature on the original, but August Alsina trades in Rich’s feature for Yo Gotti in “Ghetto,” in which the gritty crooner lets it be known he loves the realness of a "round the way woman."
"Ghetto" will appear on August's upcoming debut album, dropping in spring 2014.
Produced by: Knucklehead
