Another Jamie XX Track Appears Online Featuring Rapper Young Thug

Another cut from Jamie XX’s forthcoming ‘In Colour’ album has surfaced online featuring rapper Young Thug.

Dubbed “I Know There’s Gonna Be (Good Times)” Jamie explained to XXL how the retro sounding track came to fruition;

I was living in New York for a couple months and I was doing a drive to Manhattan while I was listening to Hot 97. It was the perfect setting and it made me want to make the track like that. I just think [Young Thug] is the best at the moment, him and Popcaan. I sent the song to other people who did versions, but [Thug and Popcaan’s] version fit best on the record… Young Thug has such a weird style I love, especially the things he does with his voice. It just sounds different. I like that Popcaan is so young and he comes from a different place, but they complement each other very well… Young Thug did a whole version of the song and Popcaan did a whole version of the song. I ended up splicing it together for the final version. Young Thug was really quick. I was surprised with how quick he got back to me. They got to hear the final version and they were happy. They said they want to do more stuff together.

The tracks production is spot on but we’re not entirely sure about the vocals but feels more like a grower then the instantly catchy alternative licks “Gosh” and “Loud Places” featuring Romy of The xx.
