Grimes' brand new song is her best yet

After catapulting to stardom in 2012 with Visions, Grimes has released precious little music. There was the rejected Rihanna track last year, and now 'REALiTi', a cut recorded in early 2013 for a scrapped album. 

'REALiTi' reflects a poppier direction for Grimes, with a danceable beat and her vocals relatively high in the mix. In her own words:

Since this is no longer gonna be on the album, I'm releasing it as a special thank you to everyone in Singapore, KL, Manila, Jakarta, HK, Shanghai, Beijing, Taipei, Seoul, Osaka, Nagoya and Tokyo who came out to the shows! It was an honor to play with a bunch of amazing bands and travel to places I would never otherwise be able to go[.]

This song was never finished. its a demo from ~ the lost album ~, recorded early 2013. i lost the ableton file, so its not mixed or mastered. i tried to doctor the mp3 into a listenable state, but it was poorly recorded in the first place and never meant to be heard by anyone, so its a bit of a mess haha.

The video was filmed during her recent Asia tour. Watch it below.
