We live in an era where every time two of our favorite artists interact on Twitter or take a photo together, we scream smash on our keyboards and say, "OMG are they going to collab?!"
Usually, these interactions turn into nothing, but sometimes artists from seemingly completely different worlds end up connecting through the internet and making great music together. That's the case with the new collaborative Adult Swim single between Chicago rapper Saba and multi-talented singer/producer Zack Villere (who originally caught our attention with his charming viral hit "Cool" and later delivered an excellent, well-rounded album Little World).
The two originally connected on Twitter through a message like, "'Hey let's work fam,' some shit like that," Saba told The FADER. But their collaborative relationship grew from there: "This is one example of Twitter friendships and social media connections turning into real life friendships."
Over a beautiful, twinkling beat from Zack Villere, Saba's versatility shines. "He's very tight, very talented," Saba continues. "I feel like his ear as a producer, if you listen to his music, he's not using any of the sounds that anybody else is using, and I think his chords are crazy. And from an artist's perspective, that's the kind of ear that I want to hear my music first."
