Aesop Rock and TOBACCO return as Malibu Ken with new cut "Corn Maze"

"Corn Maze" is the second offering to be shared from Aesop Rock and TOBACCO's new venture Malibu Ken.

Last month Black Moth Super Rainbow's Aesop Rock and TOBACCO delivered the first taste of their collaborative record with "Acid King".

Naming their new collaborative project as Malibu Ken, the duo have now shared a second single from their forthcoming album, this time called "Corn Maze".

On their collaboration, Aesop Rock explained, "TOBACCO and I have thrown around the idea of doing a project together since we first toured over a decade ago. I find his production to be something special, and always wanted to see what I could bring to it. We recently found time to record some songs, and Malibu Ken was born. I brought a few stories to the table, but also did my best to let the production dictate the subject matter throughout. We hope you like the soup.”

Aesop Rock revealed new track "Klutz" earlier this year. His last record was 2017's Bushwick movie soundtrack. TOBACCO's last album Ripe & Majestic (Instrumental Rarities & Unreleased Beats) also arrived in 2017.

"Corn Maze" is out now. Malibu Ken will land on 18 January via Rhymesayers, and is available to pre-order now.
