It is officially "Flacko Season," as Rocky took to Twitter yesterday to say simply "I'm Back..." With that tweet he also added "Midnight" which signified the release of a new track and music video titled, "Multiply."

The song begins with an intro by Rpcky and Juicy J. The J is know for his "Trippy" lifestyle and he warns Rocky that he needs to watch out for fake people.
It is actually pretty surprising that Juicy J and Rocky haven't collaborated more often. This isn't a full on feature but there are a few ad-libs from J that are repeated throughout the song.
The song is a general shot at all the fake people and serves as a wake up call to everyone in the game. The second part of the song is both sinister and trill at the same time. He is clearly coming back strong after his hiatus and just when fans may have thought Rocky fell off he comes in to completely destroy that notion.
What is interesting with Rocky is the fact that he isn't changing his approach or style of music, unlike Kendrick Lamar who surprised his fans with "I," a song that is a bit softer and more upbeat.
Lamar fans won't be worried as he isn't one to really move away from his roots. Rocky fans however, will be pleasantly surprised with "Multiply."
