APL.DE.AP AND !LLMIND COME TOGETHER

FOR NEW SINGLE ‘NEVER’

SINGLE RELEASED OCTOBER 1ST, OFFICIAL START

OF FILIPINO-AMERICAN HISTORY MONTH

As America begins its month-long celebration of Filipino-American history, two of the culture’s most celebrated musicians – Black Eyed Pea Apl.de.Ap and producer and songwriter !llmind – come together to drop sublime new hip-hop single ‘Never’.

A chilled out, loping hip-hop cut, ‘Never’ keeps it stripped back and simple, oozing easy confidence. Bouncing bass and relaxed piano lines give the single a summery vibe, a sweet top line drizzled across the top.

“I’m really excited about finally putting out Never,” Apl.de.Ap said. “It’s been amazing getting to work with a world class talent like !llmind. It’s a song I’ve performed a handful of times and I’m glad it’s coming out. I hope everyone enjoys it.” 

A household name around the world and a revered icon in his home country, Apl.de.Ap is founding member of one of the world’s most successful hip-hop and pop bands. Dominating international charts with hits like Where Is The Love, Boom Boom Pow, I Gotta Feeling, Where Is The Love, Shut Up and countless more, he’s also been a global ambassador for Filipino arts, technology and business over the past three decades.

Having worked with the likes of Ariana Grande, Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Nicky Minaj, Fhuture, Khalid, Kanye West, Drake, Dr. Dre, Ludacris, 50 Cent and more, NYC-based !llmind is also an acclaimed artist in his own right. His 2004 remix of Jay-Z’s ‘Black Album’, The Black and Tan Album, received critical acclaim by a host of press including the New York Times, while Disney enlisted his talents to produce Moana’s outro song ‘You’re Welcome’ featuring Lin-Manuel Miranda and Jordan Fisher, and to work on The Hamilton Mixtape.

APL.DE.AP & !LLMIND ‘NEVER’ IS OUT GLOBALLY ON ALL DSPS AND DOWNLOAD STORES OCTOBER 1ST 2024.
