Gorillaz Grab Pusha T and Mavis Staples for New Song “Let Me Out”

Byhiphop

Gorillaz and Pusha T fans are in for a real treat today as the two artists link up on “Let Me Out.” The track also features Mavis Staples and will be included on the upcoming Gorillaz album, Humanz.

Zane Lowe teased the premiere of the record on his Beats 1 show, and the track also hit Spotify.

Lowe spoke with Pusha T about the collaboration, who said, “I was not gonna miss this opportunity.” The conversation also touched on Damon Albarn’s skills at ping pong. Evidently Albarn challenged Drake to a game; who would win?

Pusha shared the process behind creating the record. “I was writing from the perspective of a Trump win,” he said, which Albarn had asked him to do prior to Trump winning the presidential election. “He definitely conceptualized this whole thing.” Check out Pusha’s interview below.

A few weeks back, Gorillaz dropped four new songs from Humanz featuring a range of artists like Vince Staples and Popcaan. Additional guests on the project include De La Soul, Danny Brown, Kelela, and more.

Humanz is due out April 28. For now, listen to “Let Me Out” below.
