Exclusive: Blinkie Teams up With G.U.R.U. on “B’donk”

G.U.R.U. & Blinkie

G.U.R.U. & Blinkie

Blinkie teams up with producer and DJ collective, G.U.R.U. on an underground release of “B’donk”, a deep house banger that samples Missy Elliott’s “Work It”.

This club smash gained popularity and went viral on social media, which led it to being picked up by the likes of DJ Target, Colin Francis, Tough Love, Nick Grimshaw, Marvin Humes, and many more.

With the catchy vocal and the bouncy bassline, it comes as no surprise that it was chosen as one of Monki’s top 5 in Ibiza and played live on Radio 1 at Ushuaia this summer. It’s definitely one to get the dance floor shuffling.
