GRiZ gave his hometown fans in Detroit a present on Friday night (Dec. 14): a brand new song, and a surprise guest to go with it.
Playing the first of two 12 Days of GRiZmas concerts at the city's Masonic Temple, GRiZ welcomed funk legend Bootsy Collins for the first encore of his hour-and-50-minute show, collaborating on a brand new song called "Bustin'." Collins was warmly welcomed by the sold-out crowd and traded spoken-word verses with GRiZ on the brassy track, as GRiZ declared "say it loud and say it proud: funk music for life!"
The song eventually morphed into the snippet of the Parliament classic "Give Up the Funk (Tear the Roof Off the Sucker)."
