Dev Hynes has unveiled two new Blood Orange songs, but neither of them are gonna be on his next record.
The producer/songwriter announced the tracks on Instagram with the caption: "Not from the next album... u must luv yourself. Happy Black History Month. (All year)."
The tracks come just a few days after a collaboration with Girlpool titled "Picturesong". Since the release of excellent LP Freetown Sound in 2016 Hynes has been hella busy showing it off to the world, collaborating with Blondie, singing the praises of Carly Rae Jepsen, and working on viral campaign VeilHymn.
He's also been working hard on the Freetown Sound follow up, which is nearly done (hopefully).
