Danny Brown shares video for "When It Rain," signs to Warp for new album, talks Talking Heads

Danny Brown has been teasing details on his full-length follow-up to 2013’s Old for a while now, and he’s finally shared his first new song. It’s called “When It Rain” and it finds Danny at his queasiest and most manic, the beat minimal and creepy while Danny starts out at a 10 on the yelling scale and stays there the whole time. There’s an awesome, trippy VHS-looking video for the thing, and you can watch that below.

Danny’s signed with Warp Records for the new album, which we don’t have a release date for yet, but he did talk about it in an interview with BBC’s Zane Lowe today. He mentioned the Talking Heads as a big influence, specifically. He also mentioned he listens to Radiohead when works out/runs. Always ambitious, it should be exciting to hear what he’s cooking up, and “When It Rain” is a great first taste of material.

Danny Brown was also on that new Avalanches track. Check out the video for “When It Rain,” and listen to that Zane Lowe interview, below.
