Chart-topping, genre-bending artist bbno$ (baby no money) teams with multiple GRAMMY-winning superstar artist and producer Diplo for the irresistible club track ‘pogo‘ – listen now HERE. With more than 13 billion collective streams between them, the dynamic team of rising Canadian rapper bbno$ and music icon Diplo are back at it again, having successfully collaborated last year on Diplo’s huge house remix of bbno$’s smash “edamame.” The +300M streaming, ‘edamame’ was the second hit single lifted from bbno$’s brilliant sixth studio album eat ya veggies, which has now amassed over 1 billion cumulative streams globally.
The duo’s newest collaborative masterpiece ‘pogo‘, showcases bbno$ and Diplo at their best, giving fans an energetic and infectious summer banger, ideal for blasting through your headphones, car stereo or poolside speakers. The accompanying music video HERE shot on location in Palm Spring, California delivers a satirical and hilarious joy ride of imagery featuring Diplo and bbno$ as surprisingly multi-versatile pogo stick salesmen.
‘pogo‘ is bbno$’s latest release. It follows the buoyant single, “piccolo” and its accompanying video directed by bbno$ long-time collaborator Shiraz and gives fans a further glimpse into bbno$ highly anticipated upcoming studio album, expected in the Fall. ‘pogo‘ also provides a much-needed example of the freedom and catharsis that good summer dance music offers, even if at times we are dancing alone. Of the ‘pogo‘ collaboration bbno$ says,
“bbno$ and Diplo you already know what the f*ck is going on. we made a club anthem about pogo sticks lmao. the video is maybe my favorite I’ve ever done. hope I see kids bouncing to it all summer”
