Filipino group 8 Ballin’ just dropped their maiden track under Def Jam Philippines and their eighth single this year.
Titled “Di Na,” which loosely translates to “No Need,” the rap group goes for a more laidback, R&B-inspired direction, sharing their sentiments on how actions speak louder than words when it comes to love. “This song is pretty much a diverse kind of love song because it doesn’t only pertain specifically towards a single person, but also to each artist’s chosen significant others—be it a lover, a friend, a family member, or something beyond the actual human form,” the members shared in a press statement.
According to 8 Ballin’, the zp3nd-produced track was sonically inspired by 2000s West Coast hip hop. They also remarked how it signals their stylistic progress, saying, “We were much improved versions of ourselves when we decided to make this song.”
