Theophilus London is looking to have a big year in 2014. His sophomore album VIBES! is set to drop, with assistance from Kanye West, and his upcoming EP is due to for release very soon. In the meantime, he gives us a cut from the EP entitled “Take A Look”.
Here is what London told Style.com about the track.
In late November, Kanye sent me a folder of music to inspire me, with a bunch of really obscure oldies. [“Take a Look”] is an interpretation of another song that came out in, like, 1981, by a group called Martin Dupont from Marseille, France. I was working on my new album, and Kanye said, ‘You should cover or reinterpret some very obscure songs, with their melodies and with your bass lines.’
