Mick Jenkins (ft. theMIND) • "Sunkissed"
Brand loyalty about to be at an all time high here in Chicago. In the same day Adult Swim gives Joey Purp & Thelonius Martin a reason to make another heater, 1800 Tequila backs a new single from another pair of frequent collaborators in Mick Jenkins & theMIND. Over production from Soulections's Da-P, who previously worked with Mick on The Water[s], we get "Sunkissed". A king of consistency, the track is exactly what we've come to expect from Jenkins: undeniably powerful in both concept and delivery, yet so precise it comes off cool and calm. And, as always, the contributions from theMIND accent the track perfectly.
While "Sunkissed" is certainly impressive, it was undoubtedly the second most important thing to come out for theMIND yesterday as he celebrated the release of his debut album Summer Camp. If you haven't dove into that one yet, we highly suggest giving that some plays today. Looking ahead, these two are about to hit Europe for a couple weeks, but catch them back at home for Pitchfork Music Festival on July 15th.
