Kelela x Tink - "Want It" (prod. by DJ Dahi)

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

Kelela, Tink and DJ Dahi gave you a taste of the ethereal down-tempo heat they had been working on with some behind-the-scenes visuals just yesterday on Adidas' latest installment of Songs From Scratch, but today it's time to see the fruits of their labor in full effect with the release of "Want It." The trio got together at a studio in Burbank, CA last week and managed to out this minimal slow-churning dose of melancholy with Kelela's delicate upper register rocking supreme, tagging out intermittently as Tink's versatile croon-to-rhyme vocal treatment takes over for a bit. Its an impressive and expedient one-off from the trio, opening up the door to future collaborations. Listen Kelela and Tink on DJ Dahi's production below.
