Lil Peep And ILoveMakonnen Link Up One More Time For 'Sunlight On Your Skin'
Last week,
iLoveMakonnen unveiled a group effort with late singer and rapper Lil Peep the pair made before
Peep's untimely death in November 2017. That song, "Falling Down," also featured contributions from rapper XXXTentacion, who Makonnen mentioned hopped on the track right after being inspired immediately after Peep's death. X was killed earlier this year, making "Falling Down" a melancholy posthumous link-up between the two.
Right now, Makonnen has released an alternate version of the song, called "Sunlight on Your Skin," that features his own vocals alongside Peep's. It's largely same because the one we heard last week, yet Makonnen's vocals add some added lyrical melodies between Peep's gravelly recitation of the chorus.
Makonnen posted a clip of the song on Instagram on Thursday (September 27) with the simple caption, "For all of the OGs." He also took to Genius to annotate the song, adding some commentary about the contents and inspiration in back of the song.
"Rainy days any time you're with each other although sunny days as soon as you're apart, you love each other so much that you would rather spend the rainy days with each other than to have the sunny days alone, although the sunny weather is preferred by most,"
he wrote. "So it's like we plan to stay with each other all these rainy days and I'm with you up until the weather changes, as the passion is that strong."
