As Genius notes, Desiigner was singing before he was rapping, so this next video shouldn’t shock anybody. For a new visual from Genius, the website catches Desiigner as he’s belting his heart out to a Motown classic. Hanging out in a studio during a recording session, Desiigner decided to serve up his own rendition of The Temptations’ 1964 mega-hit “My Girl.” The “Panda” artist has used past interviews — such as his Interviewmagazine feature — to share his love for the oldies and singing in general, so this might be a sign of things to come. Considering tracks like “Timmy Turner” aren’t exactly built around hard-hitting verbal gymnastics, we probably shouldn’t be surprised if Desiigner continues to go down this path.
