Shabaka unveils “I’ll Do Whatever You Want” with André 3000, Floating Points and Esperanza Spalding
Shabaka, the multi-instrumentalist and former bandleader for heralded groups Sons of Kemet, The Comet Is Coming, and Shabaka and the Ancestors, has shared new single, “I’ll Do Whatever You Want”.
The brand new single from Shabaka is taken from his forthcoming solo album, Perceive Its Beauty, Acknowledge its Grace.
Featuring Shabaka on the Shakuhachi — an ancient Japanese end-blown flute made of bamboo — the piece features vocals from Laraaji alongside contributions from André 3000 (Teotihuacan drone flute), Floating Points (Rhodes Chroma synthesizer, vibraphone), Esperanza Spalding (bass), Tom Herbert (bass), Dave Okumu (guitar), Marcus Gilmore (drums), and Carlos Niño (percussion).
“‘I’ll Do Whatever You Want’ is about surrender and the intimate space we go to within the grasp of possession,’ states Shabaka of the track.
Perceive its Beauty, Acknowledge its Grace, will be released on 12 April via Impulse!, and is available to pre-order now. For more information on the forthcoming live dates, visit shabakahutchings.com.
