Track #12 on Vince Staple’s first mixtape Shyne Coldchain Vol. 1, produced by Raider Klan member Key Nyata. This short song contains only vocals from SK La'Flare, who is featured through out Vince’s music and his friend.
SK references the movie “A Nightmare on Elm Street’s” antagonist Freddy Krueger, who attacks people who believe he exists, through their dreams. Hence the title of the song.
