On Saturday (23 May), BBC 6 Music premiered Slingbaum's new song "Behoove", and it features Erykah Badu and D'Angelo.
The mysterious artist that is Slingbaum initially announced his debut album Slingbaum One back in January.
On Saturday (23 May), Gilles Peterson played "Behoove" on his BBC 6 Music show - which features Erykah Badu and D'Angelo, and is one of three tracks that will feature on Slingbaum's album, which is a vinyl-only release.
Slingbaum One will also feature two other tracks - "Strangers" with FKA twigs, Nick Hakim, Oumou Sangaré and Questlove, and "Morphine", a collaboration with Damon Albarn, Bilal, Syd and jazz pianist Ahmad Jamal.
"Behoove" is available to stream on bbc.co.uk at the 1:50:52 mark on Gilles Peterson's show. Slingbaum's debut album Slingbaum One isn't available to pre-order, but is due to arrive in select record shops later this year.
