Ibeyi Release The Official Version Of Their Jay Electronica Cover 'Exhibit Diaz'
Ibeyi further prove that they're true hip-hop heads with the official release of their latest track "Exhibit Diaz," a rhythmically rich cover of Jay Electronica's "Better In Tune With the Infinite." Naomi and Lisa-Kainde's honeyed vocals permeate the 3-minute track as the two share harmonies over tuneful percussion. The sisters have been performing a live rendition of the song while on tour, and decided to record a studio version since track's been so well-received by fans. The twins also recently announced an extension of their ongoing world tour — check out the fall tour dates, as well as "Exhibit Diaz" and its accompanying lyric video, below. For more on the French-Cuban duo revisit their Okay Acoustic episode, where the duo gave a stripped-down performance of their song "Ibeyi (Outro)" live in Central Park.
