GOLD PANDA
Shares new track “The Corner (feat. Open Mike Eagle, Infinite Livez, McKinley Dixon)”
Album ‘The Work’ out now via City Slang
UK tour dates this October
After releasing album ‘The Work’ last year via City Slang, Gold Panda, aka Derwin Dicker, is today sharing a new version of standout track “The Corner“; which sees the first time rappers have appeared on a Gold Panda single and features McKinley Dixon, Open Mike Eagle, and Infinite Livez.
On the track, Gold Panda said “When I was making the album version of ‘The Corner’ I was thinking about how a vocalist might work on the track. Rap/Hip Hop has always been my go-to music for inspiration. I’d say a lot of my music starts off as trying to be a hip-hop track and slowly descends into Gold Panda-ness, so it’s been a pleasure to de-clutter my original version to make space for the artists I’ve been so lucky to get verses from.”
McKinley Dixon added “‘The Corner’ is the closest to the street, so I wanted to pay homage to the stories, tales and legends that are birthed out of it.”
Open Mike Eagle also said the following “Gold Panda is one of the sickest producers in the world and me and him made my biggest song a while back and got to know each other well when we toured the US. i’m always excited to rap over his production because it is the best production.“
Gold Panda’s The Work is out now via City Slang and he will be touring throughout Europe and North America this year with a run of UK shows in October. See all dates below.
