Black Caviar team up with EMIDA for "Collect Check"

NYC electronic act Black Caviar and singer EMIDA have collaborated on the new single “Collect Check.”

Released yesterday, the track, which can be heard below, was inspired by a relationship plagued by financial problems. EMIDA stated:

"The songwriting process was spurred from a period of financial instability. It led me to write about wanting to hustle out of that situation and aspire to a more opulent lifestyle. The lyrics' collect cheque - run it back' are about getting paid but still wanting more because It's never enough. Ending with 'run it forward' - straight to the bank. It was a fun song to write because money can be quite a taboo subject. But with this track, I wanted to make it cheeky, sassy and cool."

Black Caviar said this about working with the rising singer:

"When I first heard EMIDA's smooth vocals, I was blown away. Her style, tone, and delivery reminded me of Sade. I wanted to make sure the production sat in the right place that would compliment her vocal."

“Collect Check” is out on digital services right now via Dim Mak Records.
