Following the success of “ten” featuring Jozzy and the infectious anthem “adore u” with Obongjayar, this new release solidifies Fred’s prowess in redefining musical boundaries. The track emerges from a year where Fred again.. has consistently pushed creative frontiers, from the explosive “Rumble” with Skrillex and Flowdan to monumental performances at Madison Square Garden and Coachella alongside Skrillex and Four Tet. His versatility shone in a captivating NPR Tiny Desk Concert, displaying mastery across various instruments and production techniques. With “leavemealone,” Fred again.. reaffirms his position as a trailblazer in the realm of musical innovation.
