Snakehips' “Cruel” collaboration with R&B singer Zayn has been completely reimagined by Sydney producer MXXWLL. Snakehips have been on a spree lately with huge collaborations with Chance The Rapper & Tinashe and Anderson .Paak, in addition to the original version of “Cruel” which has racked up 24+ million streams in just a couple months.
Ta-ku recently offered a spin on “Cruel” and the track has been given another version reconstructing the song altogether. Instead of utilizing the original’s vocals in full, MXXWLL samples short snippets and creates atmospheric melodies out of them. Hear his remix below and grab a copy if you're feeling it. Enjoy!
