A$AP Rocky has launched a captivating new track titled “Highjack,” featuring the talented Jessica Pratt. The song showcases innovative production by Greg Kurstin, Hitkidd, Jordan Patrick, and Zach Fogarty, with soulful background vocals contributed by Creed B Good and Jon Batiste.
In a recent insightful discussion, A$AP Rocky expressed his admiration for collaboration with Pratt and Batiste. He highlighted his passion for alternative sounds, stating, “I love just different sounds and whatnot. Jessica Pratt kind of gave me this Portishead meets Stevie Nicks vibe. I’ve always appreciated her artistry, so it was essential to bring her and Jon Batiste on board to create something soulful for the outro.”
Jessica Pratt, who made her return earlier this year with her album Here in the Pitch, last released Quiet Signs in 2019. Notably, Troye Sivan sampled her single “Back, Baby” from the album On Your Own Love Again for his song “Can’t Go Back, Baby.” Reflecting on the sampling experience, Pratt described it as unexpected and delightful.
A$AP Rocky is gearing up for the release of his highly anticipated album Don’t Be Dumb, set to drop on August 30. His latest single “Highjack” adds to a series of recent tracks, including “D.M.B.,” “Shittin’ Me,” “Same Problems?,” and “Riot (Rowdy Pipe’n).”
