Today marks the arrival of Free National’s ‘Time’, which features vocals from Kali Uchis and the late Mac Miller. Kali Uchis kicks things off with a beautiful reflection, her vocals floating effortlessly over Free National’s focused groove. “I gotta take some time to grow,” she sings, lamenting her difficult decision. “But I don’t want to let you go.” The way Mac Miller slides onto the track as if he hasn’t lost a step, a reminder of his evolving soulful presence. Musically, ‘Time’ wouldn’t have sounded out of place on Swimming, with emphasis on live instrumentation and melodically inclined vocals. “Look at me watering seeds, time to grow,” sings Mac. “I get out of control when I’m alone, if you could make it with me you can make it on your own.”
