New Music: Flying Lotus feat. Kendrick Lamar – ‘Eyes Above’
9:30 AMGH
Kendrick Lamar guests on “Never Catch Me” off Flying Lotus’ album You’re Dead!,
but they also recorded a second collaboration called “Eyes Above,”
which Lotus has been playing at his live shows. Now Lotus has liberated
the full minute-long version via his BBC Radio 1 show.
“There’s actually another track that he did on this album that I had
to take off for political reasons, but it was a really cool thing,” he
told Pitchfork
last year. “He came to the house and laid it down and killed it. He
didn’t come with no entourage or nothing. It was real special to me.”
Over Lotus’ melodic production, the Compton rapper fires off some
rapid-fire rhymes: “Buffalo soldiers at war / You shot fast, but that
ain’t the final score.”
