Today, rapper Yeat has dropped DANGEROUS SUMMER, an 11 track EP. This fresh release features a wide variety of collaborative features, especially towards its latter half. One single, “Fly Nite,” features the rapper teaming up with fellow artist FKA Twigs. A visualizer for the single can be found on Yeat’s YouTube channel.

As Pitchfork reports, FKA Twigs has diverse and unique history of collaborations herself, with her appearance on Fly Nite being another chance for the singer to bring her unique style to new audiences. While only a relatively short verse on Yeat’s new track, she leaves a strong impression on the track. Yeat’s first verses on the track provide a strong flow over an ethereal beat, with an overall calm atmosphere. FKA Twigs’ lyrics are rung in with a fast-paced drumbeat that keeps the vibes calm but kicks the energy up a little, perfectly complementing her light vocals. When the track returns to Yeat for the final chorus, the drumbeat returns to infuse some more energy before the outro.

DANGEROUS SUMMER comes ahead of the expected release of A DANGEROUS LYFE, the rapper’s upcoming sixth studio album. Initially, fans speculated the phrase “dangerous summer” suggested this album would release this summer, however, it now appears to refer to this EP, separate from the coming release. Considering track 6’s title “[ADL IS COMING],” it seems like fans shouldn’t worry that the album is too far off. As for FKA Twigs, she’s had a steady stream of collaboration and solo work alike, including a new single entirely in the fictional Simlish language.

Steven Taylor: Hello, I'm Steven! I'm a graduate of Seton Hall University. I majored in journalism, with a minor in Public Relations. I've always had a passion for the arts and creative fields. Writing especially is an area I've always found myself gravitating towards, between assignments in class, working for the school newspaper or just writing in my spare time. I love providing and hearing new perspectives. In addition to my studies and work in writing, I work part-time at after-school and summer programs for my local elementary school. I've been a part of these programs since I was in high school, and I've even been assigned to work one-to-one with children with special needs. I like to think that if I'm able to communicate well with children in the 2nd grade, then I can communicate well with most adults too!
