Erykah Badu has shared a new tune called "Phone Down" from her forthcoming mixtape But You Caint Use My Phone.
The track arrives following her recent rework of Drake's "Hotline Bling". Dropping "Phone Down" via an "official leak", Badu wrote "this one's for Aubrey" - almost certainly another dedication to Drake, whose real name is Aubrey Graham.
The new tape follows her FEEL BETTER, WORLD! release over the summer, and 2010's New Amerykah Part Two.
But You Caint Use My Phone is out during the Thanksgiving weekend (26 November onwards).
