Featuring a shimmering sample of The Si-berians’ ‘This Is the Ending of Our Love’.

Loyle Carner is releasing his new track ‘Yesterday’ on vinyl, via Virgin EMI this December.

Carner described the single as: “really just about what it is to be Black and white, in a world where you pretty much have to be one or the other. It hurts the way I felt about my race back then, is the same way I feel now.”

“Nothing has changed since my last entry, nothing has changed since the last century. I hope that soon this song is nothing more than a reminder of a different time, and collectively we’re able to move forward to a time of more respect, acceptance and understanding.”

The vinyl edition includes the original track alongside an instrumental version on the flip.
