Continuing on his promise to change perceptions and defy expectations, the innovative multi-hyphenate Aminé releases a single dubbed “Compensating” in collaboration with Young Thug. The Portland rapper, artist, director and culture shaker is gearing up for his sophomore-ish full-length studio album titled Limbo is slated to arrive on August 7.

Once the bouncy track officially premiered, Aminé spoke with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe about the track and how the whole collaboration came together. “I was in Toronto working with T-Minus on this song and I put the hook together and then Minus told me he had a session with Thug and he thought that we would mesh well together on this song,” he explained. “The only time I’ve ever met Thug before that was I was in Europe and he walked up to me at some festival, I think where it was way out west or some, and he walked up to me and called me a young legend and I never forgot that moment. I never forgot that moment.”

Limbo will be a follow-up to Aminé’s 2018 project OnePointFive, but the rapper has been steadily sharing more music with his fans all throughout 2020. Just last month, he dropped his Rihanna tribute dubbed “Riri,” also sharing the Ol’ Dirty Bastard-referencing track “Shimmy” earlier in February.
