With his trademark humor and sharp perspective, he portrays contemporary society, where personal convictions and assertions are consumed as slogans on clothing.

It’s an irresistible track for those who want to enjoy incisive social satire set to a sprightly beat, and for anyone eager to witness an experimental spirit that shows no sign of fading with age.

Their track “Run It Back!!,” featuring their East Coast ally Nas, stands out with a beat that reverses a smash hit by The Police.

While evoking the golden era, it also conveys a strong determination to keep leading the scene in the present.

The song appears on Cabin in the Sky, their first album in nine years, released in November 2025, a project that also drew attention through collaborations with BEAMS.

It’s a great listen not only for longtime fans but also for anyone seeking a positive boost.
