The incredibly dramatic song Moses Sumney’s ‘Me in 20 Years‘ was played on the just-released Euphoria special this week — Euphoria, Season 1 Special, “Trouble Don’t Last Always” (premiered on HBO on December 3rd, 2020).
The avant-garde track was heard as Ali (Colman Domingo) calls his daughter and as Rue (Zendaya) is listening to her headphones.
Moses Sumney’s ‘Me in 20 Years‘ is from the North Carolina native’s second studio album Græ.
Released in two parts earlier this year via the indie label Jagjaguwar, Græ is a gorgeous and quite unusual collaboration between Moses Sumney and a huge number of other musicians, artists and writers including Jill Scott, Thundercat, Michael Chabon, Ezra Miller, Ian Chang and James Blake.
Sumney’s song ‘Me in 20 Years‘ was the third single release from the album. (continue reading and listen to Moses Sumney’s ‘Me in 20 Years‘ after the blurb below…)

The album itself was not a commercial success for Sumney, only charting in Portugal where it made it to the #44 spot on the Portuguese Albums chart.
