Blackbird Blackbird’s Mikey Sanders is one busy dude. With Seeing Suge, he’s teamed up with UK rising producer Star Slinger (get his superb Volume 1 for free) and Canadian rapper Emay for a free 4-track EP.
The EP features a collaborative track ‘Breaking’ with involvement from all three artists and then a previously-unreleased track from each. It can be heard at the Bandcamp or downloaded at the Mediafire link.
Blackbird Blackbird’s track ‘Little Respect’ is built on an Aretha Franklin song of a similar name though it’s pretty hard to tell, Emay gives us the Buck 65-esque ‘Sleep’ and Star Slinger’s ‘1987’ is likely to appear on his upcoming Volume 2: Jetpack Jams.
