Singer-songwriter Bon Iver has recently kept himself busy, but he has finally put out some news about his new album, which is scheduled to come out sometime in June. In an article with Rolling Stone, he talked about how he forgot how to write songs and had to relearn everything he knew for the new, yet-to-be-titled album. However, he feels he has adapted, and things will be much different than his first LP, For Emma, Forever Ago. You can read the article from Rolling Stone here.
GOOD Music’s Pusha T (of Clipse) has released his version of Kanye West‘s Bon Iver-sampling “Lost In The World”. The new song will be included on Pusha’s highly anticipated new mixtape Fear Of God. It’s the same Pusha T we’ve grown to love and expect, adding his touch to Yeezy’s masterful beat. Eughk!
UPDATE: The song was unfinished and leaked. Kanye has chosen not to release a new GOOD Friday track this week because of the leak.
Check out a new Kanye West song featuring Bon Iver called “Lost in the World”.
“It sounds exactly like how you want it to sound: forward moving, interesting, light-hearted, heavy-hearted, f***ing incredible sounding jam,” Vernon said. “It was kind of bare so I added some choir-sounding stuff and then thicked out the samples with my voice. We were just eating breakfast and listening to the song on the speakers and he’s like, ‘F***, this is going to be the festival closer.’ I was like, ‘Yeah, cool.’ It kind of freaked me out.”
