Check out the song below.<\/p>\n

The new song follows a consistent stream of Fred again.. collaborations that he\u2019s been adding to his \u201cinfinite\u201d album, USB,<\/em> which first launched in 2022. The second official installment of the project, USB002,<\/em> arrived in December of last year.<\/p>\n
