The steady rollout of new music may be leading up to Russ's inspirational book It's All In Your Head that's slated for a November release date.

Russ's "OLD DAYS" has him desiring the times in his life when things seemed much simpler. He lists off the changes that have occurred since he's reached celebrity status and managed to craft a song that is made for cruising around your hometown as you drive by your favorite local hangouts. Check it out and let us know if you're vibin' to Russ's latest.

Quotable Lyrics

I feel like I was just seventeen, wide eyed
Riding 'round Atlanta in my Nissan at night time
Thinkin' of my girl 'cause I didn't have hoes yet
Didn't have a gun 'cause didn't have smoke yet
Now I'm more strapped than the government
My rap name is my government
So I take this sh*t more personally
Made "Yung God" 'fore they started worshipping me
