KAYTRANADA Debuts Unreleased Song With Childish Gambino Ahead Of New Album

KAYTRANADA has treated fans to an early listen of his upcoming collaboration with Childish Gambino ahead of his new album.

During a DJ set at Gucci’s Cruise 2025 show in London earlier this week, the Montreal-born producer debuted the unreleased song.

“It’s 2:15 up in the morning/ I’m talkin’ to you, but I’m really tryna hold you down/ Spirits, they’re all around me, can you feel it?/ My n-ggas don’t believe in critics, dawg/ They see you dancing, girl, they watch it go around,” Gambino sings on the house-flavored track.

Kaytra previously confirmed the song would appear on his next album while interacting with fans on social media last year.

While details about his new album remain scarce, KAYTRANADA dropped two potential singles in November: “Lover/Friend” with Rochelle Jordan and “Stuntin” with Channel Tres.

His last solo album Bubba arrived in December 2019 with features from Pharrell, Tinashe, Estelle, Mick Jenkins, SiR, GoldLink and more.

The project won a Grammy Award for Best Dance/Electronic Album in 2021, while “10%” took home Best Dance Recording. He was also nominated for Best New Artist that year.

KAYTRANADA has since dropped a collaborative album with Aminé. Released in May 2023, Kaytraminé boasted features from Big Sean, Snoop Dogg, Freddie Gibbs, Pharrell and Amaarae.

Childish Gambino, meanwhile, released his own new album earlier this week. Atavista dropped on Monday (May 13) and served as a reissued version of his 2020 LP 3.15.20.

The album includes the same features as the original (21 Savage, Ariana Grande, Kadhja Bonet and Ink), but with new vocals from Young Nudy and Summer Walker as well as a slightly reworked tracklist.

Bino has also confirmed he is releasing a second album this year. Tentatively titled Bando Stone in the New World, it will serve as the soundtrack to a film of the same name and is being billed as his final album under his rap name.
