"To the Bone" is a song by American hip hop superduo Unc & Phew and rapper YoungBoy Never Broke Again from the former two's collaborative album Only Built for Infinity Links (2022). It was produced by Atake, Larzz and Sluzyyy.
Composition
The song finds Takeoff " time" and " syllables" while Quavo melodically raps to the beat. YoungBoy on the other hand takes on a gangsta rap style. Critics note that it's an "imitation" of Migos' "Need It," also featuring YoungBoy.
Music video
In a 2023 podcast with YoungBoy Never Broke Again, he announced that Quavo and Takeoff - prior to his death - had flown out to Utah where YoungBoy is currently placed on house arrest to film the official music video, however, YoungBoy noted that he was in a bad mood and regretted canceling the video shoot: "they came out here to do the video, but I think something happened. And it had me in a f*cked up mood. So, I had canceled the video. I regret it, though. It's okay, though."
