Gallant has teamed up with Adrian Younge on “Strobe Lights,” a new song released as part of the producer’s Black History Month series for Amazon Music.
“‘Strobe Lights’ is about those weird sensors in your brain that go off as a kid at your best friend’s house that make you think ‘Hold on, am I the black friend? Is that all they and their family are thinking of me?'” Gallant said.”But then you stop yourself because that’s ridiculous… but then you look around and the other friends are hopping on couches, calling the parents by their first names… and you could never do that, not here. Or maybe you can, but you’d never do that— you’re the black friend…”
Other collaborators on the ‘Produced By’ project include Black Thought, Terrace Martin, Estelle and Georgia Anne Muldrow.
