Nick Cannon whips up his version of a mai tai—Mai Time To Turn Up—while chatting about his new single, Only You. The Wild ‘N Out star dives into the creative process behind the single, including why it feels like yacht music, the special place he has in his heart for the Caribbean, and why he had to get Fat Joe on the 90s inspired track.
