Interesting series I just caught via my man Nitai featuring Black Milk’s “Puddles” collabo with Ghanian/Canadian A K U A.

Detroit’s current crown producer/MC Black Milk teams up with up-and-coming Ghanaian/Canadian songstress A K U A, who you might’ve caught singing in Solange‘s band, (or just hanging out on Okayplayer, covering Prince) for this hazy installment of our Player Xchange series. In “Puddles,” A K U A lays down some hypnotically airy vocals that float steady over a signature avant-hip-hop Black Milk beat. Milk perfectly summed up the ethereal vibe of the track in his interview, explaining that “there’s a good contrast between [A K U A’s vocal] softness and that wind sample, like you’re kind of caught in that wind, blowing.” Watch the behind-the-scenes mini-documentary following the creation of the song and download Black Milk x A K U A’s “Puddles” below.
