If he has things go his way, Desiigner may have a legitimate follow-up to his chart-topper “Panda.”

With hardly anything else to his name, the rapper has spent half of 2016 riding high off the success of his very first single, which has since gone platinum-plus. And although he would release his debut mixtape, New English, critics both online and off were quick to write him off as a one-hit wonder.

That is, until he delivered his XXL Freshman freestyle. Resembling a hook to a song more than an actual rap those 30 seconds — which was dubbed by the Internet as “Timmy Turner” — arguably became more popular than New English itself.

Now Desiigner has turned the (once again, it’s only a) 30-second clip into a full-fledged song, which will be produced int part by longtime G.O.O.D. Music affiliate and legendary producer Mike Dean. The two have been previewing it via Instagram…

I will say that the cover art is rather dope, however. But all of this has come to fruition because of the Internet.
