Epworth says of his latest single, ""Mars & Venus" was the first track I made for Voyager and without Vince the record wouldn’t have even been started. Ishmael helped me finish the record in style. Thanks to Elle Yaya for her smoky pipes and vibes."
VOYAGER will also include collaborations with Ty Dolla $ign, Lianne La Havas, Kool Keith and more.
"Mars & Venus" featuring Vince Staples, ISHMAEL and Elle Yaya is out now. Paul Epworth's VOYAGER album lands 12 September via Columbia Records, and is available to pre-order now.
