Danny Brown | 25 Bucks ft. Purity Ring
Detroit rap iconoclast Danny Brown continues to spin gold from his acclaimed LP Old, this time in the form of a single (and appropriately moody music video) for album standout "25 Bucks." The hypnotic Purity Ring instrumental provides a perfect backdrop for Danny’s heart-rending rhymes and Megan James’ ghostly chorus vocals, and the single comes backed by two bonus remixes of Old banger "Dip" by UK bass master Preditah and SMOG producer/DJ Noah D, making it a must-have for any Bruiser.
