Nacho Picasso and Avatar Darko body AraabMuzik's production in "Vampire." The two scoundrels out of Seattle have been working together for a while now, with their album Vampsterdam on the horizon, and "Vampire" is their most cinematic work to date. The MPC master's bass kicks help to give our anti-heroes an elated feel in the otherwise dark song, and the added layer of the girl's voice in the hook intensifies the creepiness of the song. Nope, these two definitely aren't like the Twilight vampires.

Like " Black Velvet " before it, "Vampire" stems from the upcoming joint project by Seattle rappers Avatar Darko and Nacho Picasso . And right from the jump, Nacho gets things going with gut-busting rhymes over AraabMuzik 's in-your-face instrumental. Darko knows how to hop on the beat, too, and makes the idea of their collaborative album so much more enticing than it already was. I mean, who doesn't want more Nacho in their life? C'mon. You can stream/download "Vampire" below.
