This one kinda came out of left field. No tweets from Pusha, no promo, just appeared on the interwebs. This track is produced by Kanye and is fire flames from King Push nonetheless. And it isn’t over the greatest beat either, similar to his track ‘Numbers On The Boards’. Hopefully this means we are getting his solo sophomore effort sooner rather than later. Enjoy the track from the G.O.O.D. Music artist below.

Last night, singer-songwriter Tahliah Debrett Barnett (better known by “FKA Twigs”) performed for a sold out crowd at The Metro in Chicago, IL.

The show was kicked off by an opening performance from producer-singer Boots (the man highly responsible for Beyonce’s latest self-titled album) and ended with a promise from FKA to come back to Chicago soon.
