SLANDER Teases Soaring Upcoming Collab with Jason Ross, “Better Than Heaven”
SLANDER took to Twitter today to tease a forthcoming collab with Jason Ross, which is sounding like an absolute behemoth of a pre-summer future bass anthem. The single, titled “Better Than Heaven,” was initially revealed back in January sans a release date. SLANDER has now confirmed that the track will officially drop on May 29th, 2020. OG SLANDER fans will be thrilled to hear that the duo are dipping back into their “heaven trap” roots for the upcoming single, which is a soaring, (virtual) festival-ready melodic trap tune.
