The duo now follows with “That Girl,” an apt release for Valentine’s Day. Press materials described the new Glorious Game single:

On the track, the beat creaks beneath Black Thought’s artfully airtight lyricism. He gets introspective with confessions such as “I’d probably do anything for that girl,” while the production melts into a swooning old-school soul sample. It highlights the dynamic between his verbal firepower and El Michels Affair’s entrancing production.
