BADBADNOTGOOD are a self-described "post-bop" trio from Toronto, who made their name doing jazz-infused covers of rap artists like Tyler, The Creator and Waka Flocka. The group quickly gained the attention of some of the artists they were paying tribute to, which earned them production placements on Tyler, The Creator's WOLF, Earl Sweatshirt's Doris, and Danny Brown's OLD.

Another rapper has now come knocking at the BBNG door, and as successful as the group's past collaborations have been, this truly seems like a match made in heaven. Ghostface Killah has signed up to rap on every track on the trio's new EP, Sour Soul, and today we've been given the first taste of the project with the twisting soul cut, "Gunshowers". BBNG's live instrumentation sounds like a Wu-Tang sample come to life, as Elzhi joins Ghost to treat us to some characteristically colorful wordplay.

Look out for Sour Soul February 17th.

Quotable Lyrics:
My vocab is powerful
Spit shit subliminal
Slang therapist, my whole style is criminal
Bud like Bob Digital, fly visual
Bond body and soul
I'm a strong individual
