Rapper Big Pooh has teamed up with Jared Evan to drop off “Stranger,” the second single from the New York artist’s upcoming new album BB3 (Boom Bap & Blues 3).

Following on from lead single “Reincarnated” featuring Reks, Evan’s latest record lifts the lid on his his relationship with today’s music industry, one that’s obsessed with streaming figures, followers and viral moments.

The former Interscope Records artist feels like an outsider — or a “stranger” — as he manoeuvres the indie landscape, which is something Big Pooh can relate to. “I enjoy living life on the outside of the circle/ Where the grays flash rays of truth/ Don’t be a menace ‘fore I finish this juice/ Another spoof will probably go viral,” the Little Brother MC spits on the soulful track.
