Bas and J Cole drop new song and video for 'Tribe': Watch

The much-teased collaboration with J. Cole is the second single to drop from Bas' upcoming album 'Milky Way', which is set for an August 22 release.
PUBLISHED AUG 22, 2018

Bas is getting ready to release his new album 'Milky Way' this Friday, which is being led by the A$AP Ferg-collaborative single 'Boca Raton'. But before the album arrives, the Dreamville rapper has one more track to share. After announcing it last Thursday, Bas has finally released the much-anticipated collaboration with label boss J. Cole. 

Titled 'Tribe', the second single from the album arrives a month after being previewed at Woo Hah! Festival in the Netherlands, and is accompanied by a music video that features both rappers. Over laidback strums of an acoustic guitar, the duo combine forces for a melodic single that takes on a lighter, breezier feel than their 2016 collaboration 'Night Job.' Bas delivers a cheerful, summery record that finds him showing off his slick wordplay, rapping about coming up with his crew and the happiness his girl brings him. “I think I made it, I think I made it/ Cause I'm always smiling, and you are the reason now/ Girl, I can't explain it,” he croons on the hook.
