Man oh man, I have been anxiously waiting for the day I could finally let this one loose on the world- today is the day!<\/em> This song happened about a year and a half ago, on my first day ever working with the extremely talented and prolific, Zimbabwean-American, singer\/songwriter Shungudzo<\/a>. We have since written a bunch more together, but this one holds a special place for me. Almost as soon as we finished it, I felt strongly that this was the anchor for my next Captain Planet<\/strong> album, which was just a handful of songs and unfinished beats at the time. The message, the focus, the hard hitting sound, all these things were a culmination of what I’ve always tried to create as Captain Planet. Well, my album NO VISA<\/a> is now done (set to drop June 26th on Bastard Jazz<\/strong>) and I feel confident that because I used this first single as my anchor, the whole project has a consistent cohesion and power. You can read more of my thoughts about this song on the nice write up that Complex did<\/a> as an online premier, and I’m extremely flattered that today this song made it to NYTimes Notable Songs Of The Week<\/a> (alongside Aventura & John Legend). But most importantly<\/em>, I hope this one hits home for all of you out there, who know and appreciate the work I do, who go on spreading the good vibes in your playlists, your dance parties, and with your friends and fam. Press play and bump loudly! And as always, go support<\/a> if you’re feeling it.<\/p>\n
