Yours Truly and Adidas Originals’ ‘Songs from Scratch’ series has brought together two artists with somewhat divergent styles and asked them to make a song together. The series' newest installment is "Whirlwind," a stirring collaboration between El Paso singer Khalid and Brooklyn production duo Brasstracks. Brasstracks trumpet-driven production provides a rich and unexpected backdrop to Khalid's rather pessimistic take on love in the aftermath of a crushing break-up.
Khalid has broken out this year on the strength of his single "Location." Brasstracks produced Chance The Rapper’s “No Problem.” Give "Whirlwind" a listen.
Quotable Lyrics
You're just a whirlwind
I'll pick up the pieces you've broken
You're just a whirlwind
I'm crying out and I'm hurting
