Bilal popped up this morning when his anticipated collaboration with Kendrick Lamar, "Money Over Love," surfaced in CDQ long-snippet-form. The song, off Bilal's forthcoming album In Another Life, was previewed by BBC Radio's Gilles Peterson. This afternoon we get our second preview of In Another Life, with Bilal's "Pleasure Toy" featuring Big K.R.I.T. eOne Music has released the full record on Soundcloud, along with a pre-order for the iTunes (click the link below).
In Another Life features Krizzle, Kendrick and Kimbra. It's due out on June 30th. For those of you who weren't feeling the funky sounds on the Adrian Younge-produced "Money Over Love," how does this one, verging more on the r'n'b side, compare?
Quotable Lyrics
Let me build a cabin for that ass with this wood
Percolate, percolate, what good is a figure eight
If it doesn't circulate?
Polish off my crystal ball
So I could see the future still with broken walls of water falls
Shit, I like that there
If pleasure was a song, let me write that there
- K.R.I.T.
