Jordan Bratton "DYSTI" (Cover)

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

I’m still here bumpin’ Jordan Bratton’s last track, “Frank,” if you haven’t heard it yet, I suggest you double back. Today, Bratton keeps it moving and returns to re-imagining the songs that inspire him. We’ve heard him cover the likes of The Weeknd and Drake in recent months, today, he takes on Travis Scott’s “Drugs You Should Try it.” Says Bratton: "You never know when or how a song will effect you. I was in a session with my friends Boi 1da and Vinlyz, and was listening to Days Before Rodeo in my headphones, DYSTI came on, and it immediately spoke to me and resonated. I knew I wanted to cover it and began working on the track and cut it the next day.” Check out the final product, below. Catch Jordan live as he comes to a city near you this autumn on The Fallin’ Up Tour, dates below.
