Multi-platinum US rapper Lil Baby and British singer/songwriter Julian Perretta have teamed up to release their new single “Pony”.
Pony is a remake of Ginuwine’s 1996 hit. Arranged by Julian’s longtime friend, superstar singer/songwriter Ed Sheeran, the new instrumentals barely sound like the original Timbaland synthesizer hook, and convey a whole new feeling and sound.
Lil Baby’s verses add a more modern twist to the track, while Julian’s emotional vocals shine, delivering a unique and entirely new and different take on the classic track.
The two came up with the idea of collaborating after Julian posted a re-work of Lil Baby’s track “Pure Cocaine”. “
After having solo hits across Europe, and from working with producers like Mark Ronson to touring with Beyoncé as well as Ed Sheeran, 2019 is set to be a big year for Julian Perretta and we can’t wait to see what he does next.
