Cole Bennett And Lyrical Lemonade Recruit Corbin, Lil Tracy, And Black Kray For ‘Hello There’
‘Hello There’ reimagines the iconic melody from the blink-182 classic ‘I Miss You.’
Cole Bennett and his multimedia brand Lyrical Lemonade have shared a new single “Hello There” featuring Corbin, Lil Tracy, and Black Kray. The track is out now via Lyrical Lemonade/Def Jam Recordings.
“Hello There” reimagines the iconic melody from the blink-182 classic “I Miss You” within a lo-fi dreamscape. On the track, a soft keyboard arpeggio murmurs beneath hazy and hypnotic vocals. As cloudy melodies volley between Corbin, Lil Tracy, and Black Kray, the airy refrain hovers above the beat, resounding “Maybe I’ll be the ghost inside your bed.” Check out the video below.
Lyrical Lemonade kicked off its partnership with Def Jam Recordings by dropping “Doomsday” with the late Juice WRLD and Cordae earlier this summer. That track was followed by the recently released “Guitar In My Room” with Lil Durk and Kid Cudi.
On “Guitar In My Room,” bright guitar strums introduce Lil Durk, who handles the first verses in confessional form. As the song continues, he pleads on the chorus: “Accept me please, accept me for me/Don’t judge me off my past life, I want you to believe.”
Later, he passes the track’s baton to Cudi, who turns up with an old-school Cudder cadence, projecting his instantly recognizable booming intonation through the haze. “Caught you in a dream, I hit you with that sauce,” he raps. “If we ain’t at the moon, know baby won’t fall.”
The accompanying claymation visual—directed by Bennett—proves instantly provocative as it pins an arresting and trippy narrative to the song’s otherworldly ebb and flow.
Regarding the first single, which found Bennett and Cordae using a verse from the tragically departed Juice WRLD, Cordae said simply, “Long Live Juice WRLD.”
Cole and Cordae initially teased this chapter with a series of social media posts including the captivating whyrush?
