The Internet is back with its fourth studio album Hive Mind. The 13-track effort follows the Los Angeles quintet’s Grammy-nominated 2015 album Ego Death and includes a single feature from Dungeon Family member Big Rube. Ahead of the album’s release, the group shared the singles “Roll (Burbank Funk),” “La Di Da,” and “Come Over.”
In the three-year interim between projects, several band members focused on solo endeavors. Last year, singer Syd released her debut studio album Fin and the Always Never Home EP, while Steve Lacy released his EP Steve Lacy’s Demo and produced Kendrick Lamar’s “PRIDE.” and J. Cole’s “Foldin Clothes.” Meanwhile, Matt Martians also released his debut studio album The Drum Chord Theory.
“We’ve been making this music for eight years,” Martians told NME. “Initially it was slow, but we always felt sure that eventually funk would come back around, and people would start fucking with it—and we’d be at the forefront of it.”
The Internet previously broke down “Come Over” on Genius' series Verified:
“You send the text, ‘Oh can I pull up? Can I come over?’ And you’re waiting for that response,” Syd said about the song. “Have a legit reason if it’s a no. Then I’m cool with that. That’s totally fine. We grown. I get it.”
