Despite sounding more Death Grips than Daft Punk, the French electronic duo have nonetheless been revealed as the minds behind new Kanye West track ‘Black Skinhead’.
The song in question was premiered last month during West’s appearance on SNL and will appear on his upcoming record Yeezus. Now, however, it’s been spotted by fans that the performance credits Daft Punk’s Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo alongside Kanye.
A picture of that can be found here, while the performance can be streamed below. It’s not the first time the two acts have hooked up either, having worked together on ‘Stronger’ – West’s remake of the Daft Punk number.
