James Blake and Lil Yachty tease new joint album ‘Bad Cameo’
An unreleased track from the album was played at Blake's recent CYMK club night.
James Blake and Lil Yachty have announced that they’re set to release a new collaborative album, Bad Cameo.
The pair’s new joint project was revealed by Yachty in a new Instagram video, in which he explained that the album will see both artists leave their comfort zone.
“I think James has worked with a quite substantial amount of hip hop artists, but this project is so left for both of us,” he said.
Yachty added: “Then, aside from the one picture that James posted, which he doesn’t have many followers actually, I don’t think people know that we know each other exist.”
See the video below, as well as footage of an unreleased track from the album being played by Blake at a recent edition of his CMYK club night.
Bad Cameo will follow Yachty’s pivot into psych-rock on 2023 album Let’s Start Here, while Blake also released a new album, Playing Robots Into Heaven, last year.
