The Roots’ Black Thought and soul outfit El Michels Affair have dropped a new song perfect for Valentine’s Day, “That Girl.”
Michels leaned into hip-hop’s affinity for sampling while working on his side of the record, though rather than go crate-digging, he created his own loops. He crafted soul tracks from scratch, pulled samples from those, chopped them up, looped them, and created fresh instrumentals for Black Thought
As for how Black Thought approached his lyrics, he previously said in a statement, “What I write about is determined by the equation of the producer’s energy and my energy, it’s about where we meet. To me, these songs are like scenes from a film that is my life. That’s the way it evolved.”
