MxNxSTxR & Destructo Team Up for New Song “What You Need” featuring Thundercat & Channel Tres
American singer-songwriter Ty Dolla $ign's side project MxNxSTxR and American DJ Destructo teamed up to release a new song “What You Need” on May 2, 205 via All My Friends and Empire.
For MxNxSTxR and Destructo, the song is the first release in three years since their 2022 collaborative song “All Of Me”.
This time, the pair recruited Los Angeles-based bassist and singer-songwriter Thundercat and American rapper Channel Tres on the track.
The track is years in the making, the idea first birthed at a writing session in the MxNxSTxR's studio during the Pandemic lockdowns in Los Angeles 2020.
It was written by Gary Richards, Sheldon Young, Stephen Bruner, and Ty Dolla $ign. Produced by MxNxSTxR, Destructo, and Cory Enemy.
MxNxSTxR and Destructo first performed at Friendship cruises last month.- Destructo said of the song, “MxNxSTxR hit me up to work on some dance tunes. Turns out Thundercat was chilling in the studio. I played some funky vibes and MxNxSTxR was like hand me that guitar. Thunder jumped on the bass. Suggested we need vocals from Channel Tres and Thunder ended up singing all the main sections. All I can say is this record was a journey and a half to get here and it's finally out! I hope you enjoy it as much as we do. I am sure you heard me play it out in my sets and on FriendShip. It's time “What You Need” is here. Oh yeah and peep that bass solo section. It's probably not what your use to but it might be just what you need. Special shout out to Coco & Fai for all the sessions and time spent to make it the perfect summer feel good jam.”
