    Summary quotation from Wikipedia:

    “Truffle Butter” is a song by Trinidadian-American rapper Nicki Minaj featuring Canadian rapper Drake and American rapper Lil Wayne. It was originally an iTunes Store-exclusive bonus track from Minaj’s third studio album The Pinkprint (2014), although it was later released through additional online music stores and online streaming services on January 23, 2015. It was released as the fifth single from the record by Young Money Entertainment, Cash Money Records, and Republic Records. The track has so far reached number 26 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100.

Composition

    “Truffle Butter” features label mates Drake and Lil Wayne, and samples Maya Jane Coles’ house song “What They Say” (2010), all three rappers begin their verses with the phrase “Thinkin’ out loud,” in what was described by Alex Macpherson of The Guardian as a “relaxed, spontaneous mode.” The track is lyrically a complex, subwoofer-ready song. On January 29, 2015 rapper Ludacris released a short remix of the song as part of his weekly LudaVerses series.

Release

    Due to unplanned popularity, “Truffle Butter” featuring Drake and Lil Wayne was released on iTunes and Spotify for purchase and streaming separately from the album on January 23, 2015. Shortly after its release, “Truffle Butter” became a top 20 hit at both urban and rhythmic radios. Since its release, the song has peaked at 27 on the Billboard Hot 100, number nine on the Hip-Hop/R&B Songs, and number six on the Rap Songs Charts. Republic then announced their plans to issue “The Night is Still Young” as the next single from The Pinkprint, however, serviced “Truffle Butter” to go for pop radio adds beginning March 3, 2015.

Commercial performance
