“All My Friends” by Snakehips featuring Tinashe & Chance the Rapper

"All My Friends" teamed British production duo Snakehips with two big American names, singer Tinashe and Chance the Rapper, and the song also turned up on the duo's All My Friends EP. Snakehips built the beat and wrote the hook in London, aiming, as they explained on Genius, for a classic hip-hop groove with a gospel feel and some modern electronic sounds threaded through it.

They had Tinashe and Chance pegged as the ideal voices, reached out without much hope, and both said yes, though everyone's schedules were so packed that the track was pieced together in a few different places and the three acts never shared a studio. Sony Music UK and Columbia put it out as a single, and in May 2016 it won the Ivor Novello Award for Best Contemporary Song.
