With a new Blood Orange album on its way, the ever-busy Dev Hynes has shared one of its tracks in the form of this new number ’Chamakay’.
The track itself features Chairlift’s Caroline Polachek, while its accompanying video (directed by Kindness’ Adam Bainbridge) shows Hynes’ first ever trip to his mother’s birthplace of Georgetown, Guyana, where he meets his 92 year old grandfather for the first time. The vid also shows off his pretty impressive dance moves too.
New album Cupid Deluxe is being prepping for release later this year. Until then, watch this clip below:
