LION BABE – SINGLE REVIEW


Lion Babe feat. Raekwon – Western World 
Lion Babe feat. Raekwon - Western World

Release Date: Out Now

So, my favourite New York power couple Lion Babe are upping the ante ahead of their album release and have teamed up with Wu-Tang stalwart Raekwon for new single ‘Western World’. But that’s not all, oh no. Jillian Hervey and Lucas Goodman have pulled the vocal melody from the Pet Shop Boys classic ‘West End Girls’, set it to a chilled beat and thrown in a loose funk bass line to spin it all on its head. Raekwon does his thing on the breakdown with effortless cool and Goodman’s melody weaving makes for a truly captivating tune. If you’re after something to set the mood on a cool evening in the city with some who gets your motor running, then your search is over. Lion Babe got yo back.
