Das Racist rapper Heems has debuted a new song with Blood Orange's Dev Hynes. Listen below.
The MC is building on the success of his two mixtapes Nehru Jackets and Wild Water Kingdom, by releasing Eat, Pray, Thug. 'Home', a track from the new record, is a downbeat break up jam, complete with the tropical funk edge brought by serial guest star Dev Hynes. If this is where the record is going, colour us excited.

Discussing the collaboration with Rolling Stone, Heems said: "When Dev was Lightspeed Champion he had a little-known rap MySpace called 'Ni**a Bullshit'. This was when we first started talking about a collaboration."
The track goes all the way back to Heems' university days: "I wrote some of the lyrics in college at Wesleyan, some before Das Racist in Bushwick and most of it in my engineer Daniel Lynas' old studio with Dev in Dumbo."
