RZA x Will Wells “Destiny Bends (Paul Walker Tribute)”

gty_paul_walker_ll_131130

On Saturday, we lost Fast & Furious star Paul Walker, and Wu-Tang Clan’s RZA wrote him a tribute track. RZA also had this to say below:

“This song, entitled “Destiny Bends” was written last night after hearing the tragic news of the loss of a good man named Paul Walker. I met Paul on the set of the film Brick Mansion, where we talked, laughed, and exchanged ideas of life and fatherhood. I only knew him personally for less than a year, but we knew each other through our work and art. We saw in each other a kindred spirit of men coming from unlikely circumstances, and rising to be the light and beacon of our family and loved ones. Men who learned the joy and pains of love in life, and success, while coming to realize that nothing is more important than family, friendship, and the brotherhood of humanity. Millions of people get to know an artist or movie star through their work, but few are allowed to cross each others’ paths and see through the veil of stardom and find the common denominator that we share. As all physical things will decay and wither away, film, art, and music remain longer than the vessel that delivered them. In this vein, the one thing we can’t take away or give back is time. So, thus, time is the most precious gift. I dedicated my time to compose this song with my two sons and new friend Will Wells, who was kind enough to sing and perform it for me. We dedicate it to Paul Walker. A good man. We had plans to continue working with each other in the future. It seemed destined, but “destiny bends””.

Stream: “What About Us” – Flume & Chet Faker [Lockjaw] EP

bomb. Flume‘s name has been on fire lately. And after listening to productions like this, there’s no arguing why. Just listen to how this beat plays out.

…The man has talent.

“What About Us” is off the recently released [Lockjaw] EP. ..Which was actually a collaborative effort between Flume and Australian vocalist Chet Faker. Both have some pretty dope past works, so this was an interesting idea. “What About Us” is my favorite of the three on the EP. Posted all three though below. Enjoy…

Justin Timberlake Ft. J. Cole, A$AP Rocky & Pusha T “TKO (Black Friday Remix)”

We’re a little late but right on time with Justin Timberlake’s remix with J. Cole, A$AP Rocky and Pusha T, of which the single is originally found on his album The 20/20 Experience (2 of 2). In the song, J. Cole responds to Kendrick Lamar’s “Control” verse whiles Pusha T tells us he has the album of the year. I wonder how J. Cole felt about that?
