R.C. & The Gritz x Erykah Badu - "Leave Me Alone"

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

R.C. & The Gritz team with Erykah Badu to drop a tasty two-stepper entitled "Leave Me Alone" - a stone soul groove about the trappings of fame and the occasional need to be left alone. The refrain makes things pretty plain, as Badu coo's "leave me 'lone" over the thumping bass and asks that fans don't take her for granted. The infectious funk from R.C. Williams - Badu's musical director - and his band The Gritz is one of 11 joints on their Pay Your Tab LP, which also features a cameo from Snoop Dogg. From the sound of things, there's way more heat where this came from. Check the track below to listen to "Leave Me Alone" from R.C. & The Gritz featuring Erykah Badu. Purchase Pay Your Tab via iTunes.
