Lily Allen guests on "Heaven's Gate", the fired-up new track from Burna Boy
Lily Allen has joined Nigerian reggae-dancehall star Burna Boy for his new single "Heaven's Gate", and together they strike gold.
Burna Boy's new song is made for blasting at high volume, with royal beats aplenty, prime cuts of top pop gold scattered throughout, and Allen's contrasting vocals perfectly poised to get buried deep inside your brain. Fun fact: Burna Boy appears on Fall Out Boy's new record Mania, and that record also includes a song called "Heaven's Gate".
2018 looks to be a busy year for Allen: she started making a lot more noise recently, most notably in the form of a brand new single with Giggs landed at the tail end of 2017, but she recently confirmed that an album was coming "imminently". Allen's most recent album, Sheezus, was released in 2014. Last year she also released a Mark Ronson-produced Rufus Wainwright cover.
