Smino Joins Chance the Rapper and Lil Wayne on New Song 'Tree'

From Zero Fatigue leader to guest star, Smino’s presence on ‘Tree’ makes the single one to watch. See how this collaboration plays out.
Smino steps into the spotlight with a key feature on Tree, the new single from
Chance the Rapper, which also includes a verse from
Lil Wayne. Released July 3, 2025, Tree arrives with a self-directed music video set in a cannabis shop. Smino handles the bridge and outro, lending his signature melodic touch and relaxed delivery to the track’s hazy mood.
The song itself is a laid-back celebration of cannabis culture, with Chance opening up about family memories and Lil Wayne dropping a standout verse that references codeine and Percocet.
While some fans online wished Smino had more airtime, his presence helps smooth the transitions and anchors the song’s chill energy. Tree serves as the first major single ahead of Chance’s highly anticipated album Star Line Gallery. Smino, who leads the Zero Fatigue collective and recently released his album Maybe in Nirvana, continues to showcase his genre-blurring style and knack for memorable collaborations—proving once again why he remains a force in the modern hip-hop scene.
