There I was, expecting a pleasant evening spent listening to old school Blink-182 albums (that is not a joke, unlike my life, but seriously, Dude Ranch is still great), when Twitter exploded with news that Lady Gaga had leaked her collaboration with Kendrick Lamar. Sorry, “Apple Shampoo.” Originally, Gaga was to sing the chorus on Lamar’s “Bitch Don’t Kill My Vibe,” from his excellent album good kid, m.A.A.d, until…
Lamar previously described “Bitch Don’t Kill My Vibe” as his “Lady Gaga record” and previewed this collaboration during a listening session in September. However, deadlines and clearances prevented the track from making good kid, m.A.A.d city. Lamar explained to MTV, “That situation was a deadline situation. We had to meet these pre-orders. I was frustrated about it. My team was frustrated about it, but at the same time, we had to move forward.” (Via)
But it’s online now, with Gaga singing the hook. Hear it below.
