"He picked this 'I Won' track," the Atlanta producer-rapper said Saturday during a two-day stop at South By Southwest. "He did the verse in one day and sent it back. That's rare when you get a Kanye verse back in one day, so you know it's one of them records when he does the verse and sends it back in 24 hours. That's the icing on the cake with the album."
West's appearance on "I Won" is one of the more personal moments, encapsulating how deeply in love each is with the women in their lives. West is engaged to Kim Kardashian and Future will marry Ciara later this year. The song compares their relationships with the feeling of winning a trophy.
"When you have songs like that, they empower women," he said. "I just feel like I want to big up women just in general, from my lady to his lady, to all women, to make sure they get their light on them and just knowing they're important."
