Black Thought and El Michels Affair Drop "That Girl"

Black Thought and El Michels Affair have dropped their latest single, "That Girl," from their forthcoming collaborative album, Glorious Game.

“At first love was elusive, this old heart was icy,” Black Thought contends on the slow-moving love ditty. "“The cold part, I thought the final wifey wasn’t likely/My lover, friend, my spiritual twin, yet nothing like me/And rightfully so I never met somebody/More striking than you.”

The new track follows their previous release, "Grateful." Their collaborative poject has been years in the making— they met in the early 2000s but began working together in recent years. Glorious Game follows Black Thought's most recent team up with acclaimed producer Danger Mouse on last year's stellar Cheat Codes.

Glorious Game is due out on April 14 on Big Crown Records.

Check out the tracklist.
