Reese Weil & Nef The Pharaoh Keep the Momentum Rolling with Their Latest Single, “Money.”

CHICO, CA (August 1, 2026) - Reese Weil joins forces with Bay Area heavyweight Nef The Pharaoh once again for their new single, “Money,” arriving August 1, 2026. Blending melodic West Coast hip-hop with Bay Area bounce, polished hooks, warm synth textures, deep 808s, and radio-ready production, the record delivers an honest look at the emotional cost of giving everything to someone who never gives the same in return.

Built around themes of dating, relationships, red flags, self-worth, and knowing when it's time to walk away, “Money” captures the frustration of investing emotionally and financially into a relationship that ultimately leaves one person feeling unappreciated. Rather than dwelling on heartbreak, the song embraces the freedom that comes with choosing peace over one-sided love.

The collaboration came together organically during Nef The Pharaoh's visit to Chico, California, where he was in town for a performance and to film the music video for “The One” with Reese Weil and Cotati7z. Reese had written the hook and developed the foundation for “Money” just hours before Nef arrived. Produced by Dana Hocking, the session quickly turned into lightning in a bottle as Nef stepped into the booth and delivered his verse within minutes. The result is a natural chemistry between Reese Weil's melodic songwriting and Nef The Pharaoh's unmistakable Bay Area swagger, creating a record that feels both personal and instantly memorable.

Reflecting on how effortlessly the collaboration unfolded, Reese adds, "I wrote the hook just a couple hours before Nef got to Chico. The whole record came together naturally, sometimes the best songs happen when you don't overthink them."

With infectious melodies, relatable storytelling, and an authentic West Coast sound, “Money” showcases Reese Weil's continued evolution as an artist while pairing him with one of Northern California's most recognizable voices. The single is positioned to resonate with fans of melodic hip-hop, relationship-driven storytelling, and contemporary West Coast rap.
