<\/div>\n

Mykki Blanco<\/a> enlisted Devendra Banhart<\/a> for a spiritual odyssey on their new song, \u201cYou Will Find It.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou Will Find It\u201d boasts twinkling guitar and an atmospheric aura, although Blanco ramps up the tension with a run of crackling verses peppered with periodic synth throbs and drums. In their lyrics, Blanco namechecks Lady Gaga and Alice Coltrane (plus Betty Rubble and Snow White) as they alternately mull deep existential questions and slip in a few clever clapbacks: \u201cAll Hail, her highness, La Dona Blanco,\u201d Blanco spits, \u201cI see some fakes, they got some needs\/GoFundMe with your problems.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou Will Find It\u201d began as an interlude for Blanco\u2019s next album, although they and producer FaltyDL ultimately decided to expand it into a proper song. Banhart contributed backing vocals, guitar and hand chimes to the track, and in a press release Blanco compared working with him to working with another personal hero, Kathleen Hanna.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s not just a feature,\u201d Blanco said of Banhart, \u201che is now in the blood of the song, he\u2019s a part of the composition.\u201d<\/p>\n

Banhart added, \u201cI wanted to use the word fearless to describe Mykki, but that\u2019s not very real is it, who\u2019s actually fearless? Brave is the word\u2026 also, it was a total honor and pleasure to sing on a song that mentions Palo Santo and Alice Coltrane!  <\/span>Deep Bow to thee dear Mykki!\u201d<\/p>\n

Blanco said it \u201cfelt necessary\u201d to release \u201cYou Will Find It\u201d now, to offer \u201csomething tranquil and sanguine to counter all of our current anxieties.\u201d<\/p>\n

They continued, \u201c\u2018You Will Find It\u2019 is a meditation. I don\u2019t believe that everything spiritual has to feel so heavy and serious; I feel the opposite, actually. If people associated prayer with laughter, if prayer was made to feel sensual and funny and bitchy and ordinary, then I think more people would be comfortable acknowledging some kind of personal divine connection. This song is about exploring that connection: I should be able to smoke a joint with God and just chill a bit.\u201d<\/p>\n

Blanco has yet to offer any details on their next album, such as a release date or title. It will follow their 2016 debut LP, Mykki<\/i>.<\/p>\n
