On Sunday, HBO will air the final episode of the first season of True Detective, leaving the Internet with a gaping hole of things to obsessively talk about until it’s no longer fun. Luckily, season four of the Internet’s other favorite show to talk about, Game of Thrones, premieres just a few weeks later. In an attempt to garner buzz for the new season, HBO hired a bunch of rappers, hip-hop aritsts, and Latin-music artists to create songs about the show for a mixtape, the Wall Street Journal reports.

The mixtape, Catch the Throne, drops Friday and features, among other artists, D.C.’s own Wale. Other artists featured on the mixtape include Common, Big Boi, Daddy Yankee, Bodega Bamz performing over beats made from samples from the show. According to the WSJ, the goal of the mixtape is “to reach out to the show’s, urban, ‘multicultural’ audience, a demographic that includes African-Americans and Latinos.”

So does that mean Wale is a big Westeros nerd? Not really. He’s not a regular watcher of the show, the WSJ says. Big Boi, however, is a huge fan. As he is of the Harry Potter franchise, among others.

Anyway, you’ve got two days until the mixtape drops and you can hear choice Wale verses like this one: “I’m tellin’ whoever messin’ with me/I can bring you that Khaleesi heat/Use my King, knack for words, as an actual sword/I can decapitate a rapper…”

Season four of Game of Thrones premieres April 6.
