2020 “Best New Artist” Grammy nominee and critically acclaimed band Tank and The Bangas’ new EP, Friend Goals, is out on Verve Forecast. The EP includes numerous musical contributions from various friends the band has made throughout their career including CHIKA, Duckwrth and PJ Morton as well as a number of New Orleans-based creatives. 

The new music has already begun to receive praise—Teen Vogue proclaimed, “[‘Self Care’ is] a fun, smooth, compelling tune that proves once again that Tank and the Bangas are some of the most interesting musicians creating right now. Plus that flute hook is seriously addictive,” while Consequence of Sound furthered, “The track itself is exactly what we need in 2020, an ode to being with yourself and being damn okay with it.” The AV Club added, “New Orleans gem Tank andamp; The Bangas consistently deliver buttery grooves underneath some of the sharpest lyricism in the industry.”
