Mike G - "Highlights" (prod. by Ace, The Creator)

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

Odd Future's Mike G comes through with a cool new joint for the heads to rock with, releasing "Highlights" off his forthcoming Award Tour II EP. The track offers us some insight into more early straight-edged production from Tyler The Creator, who at the time was going by another moniker, hence the Ace, The Creator tag. Mike -- who is easily the most reclusive of the OFWKTA crew -- truly dazzles with his acrobatic verbal, providing us with a proper taste of what we can expect from the new piece when it drops January 26th. You can listen as Mike G flexes some tuff bars over production from a young Tyler on "Highlights" below. Read a few words from Mike and preorder the Award Tour II EP via iTunes today.

"Highlights is my favorite song that I've made thus far. The production is early OF era, hence "Ace, The Creator." Vintage, if you will. I want it to represent the time it takes to reach any goal. Award Tour II is the project I've been most excited to release. A handful of concentrated songs I'm ecstatic for my friends and fans to hear."
