Listen to Erykah Badu and Andre 3000’s Dreamy ‘Hello,’ Which Is a Dream Come True

Erykah Badu released her much-anticipated, phone-themed mixtape But You Cain’t Use My Phone (which we were very thankful for) at midnight last night, exclusively via iTunes/Apple Music. Among the desirable 11 tracks is one particular gem: a collaboration with former lover Andre 3000. Titled “Hello,” it’s Badu’s ethereal, dreamy rendition of The Isley Brothers’ “Hello It’s Me,” infused with 3000’s rapid-fire raps. Listen above, and enjoy.

After dropping the mixtape, Badu also shared her phone number (in three clues, below) so fans could call her and let her know which song was their favorite:
