After swiftly rising to fame with a string of huge singles, Rudimental have just released a set of remixes of their new single “Lay it All on Me” featuring Ed Sheeran, including versions by Eats Everything and Star.One. Our favourite version of the track comes with an added verse from Big Sean and an interesting singing part from Vic Mensa.
Rudimental told The FADER, “We did a remix for Big Sean and when he was next in London we hooked up a session.”
“We wanted to collaborate on something and he really felt ‘Lay It All On Me’ so we changed the beat a bit so it suited a rapper. Vic Mensa is one of our favourite up and coming rappers so we got really excited when he agreed to jump on for a verse and felt like a good fit with Big Sean.”
Although the collab sounds like an unusual mix of artists, the track actually comes together pretty well and brings some summery vibes to a cold winter. The single is released on Christmas day.
