Beat Sampras and TEA's "Bad" Is Good, Actually

Ain't no party like a Toronto party because a Toronto party is subdued and pretty chill.

Torontonians Beat Sampras and TEA make music that isn't really boxed into genres, but have linked up nonetheless for an ambient R&B jam called "Bad." It's a worthy addition to the late-night Toronto canon, which was overstuffed and didn't really need adding to unless it was something exceptional like this song.

"I'm always looking to connect with artists and build especially out of Toronto," says Beat Sampras, "I've been a big fan of TEA since she dropped "Syrup" so I was excited when she wanted to work." "This song came naturally in a 'freestyle' type session," adds TEA, "and it is definitely vibes. I am excited for [Sampra's] career, and a new sound he has to offer the city."
