Lyndsey Havens:Hey, I’m Lyndsey Havens for Billboard News, and we’re here with L.A. legends Chicano Batman. How’s it going, guys?

I know it was your most collaborative album, from my understanding. So tell me a little bit about what that was like, you know, between all of you and then also the other people that you brought in for this?

Chicano Batman:We wanted each of us to kind of have the reins on whatever song we presented to the group. Whether it’s “OK, I want string.” It’s kind of like the John Lennon vibe. I want strings on it. And they’re like, “OK, well, let’s let’s do it. Yeah.” And John Congleton was really … our producer was really helpful in that process. He’s also you know, he’s he’s a legend as well. I’m the biggest fan of St. Vincent. I’ll always work with St. Vincent, worked here at Sunset Sound, so it was … I don’t know.

THE BOYZHello we are THE BOYZ and you are watching Billboard News

Tetris KellyHey, what’s up it’s Tetris with Billboard News and we get to have some fun today I’m hanging out with some fellas from THE BOYZ.

Tetris KellyYou just dropped a brand new project Phantasy Pt.3 So now that it’s all out, I mean, you guys decided to release it in three parts. But what makes this one different than the first two?

Well, we took the word Phantasy and split it up into three different kind of worlds. And this one is kind of like funeral slash graduation. It’s kind of saying goodbye to the past and welcoming the future. So it’s kind of a emotional but hopeful kind of vibe.

Tetris KellyOkay, so can you tell me now what’s part of the funeral? What are some things you guys think you’re saying goodbye to?

Well, in a graduation, you’re essentially saying goodbye to your previous years and letting go of the past. If you’re looking at our music video, we’re actually playing students, we’re actually at a graduation. And so you can feel a lot of the vibes watching the music video.
