Mike D releases a new solo single, “What We Got,” following “Switch Up,” which he put out in early May. The new track continues his recent return to solo material. Multiple outlets note that “Switch Up” is the first new music from any Beastie Boy in around 15 years, and “What We Got” is presented as another release in that same solo run.
The coverage also describes Mike D’s ongoing collaborations with his sons. He plays shows with Very Nice Person, the band led by Skyler and Davis Diamond, and the articles indicate that the sons provide backing on the newer solo music. Both sources frame the releases as part of Mike D’s renewed activity outside the Beastie Boys, while referencing the earlier single’s significance and his recent live performances connected to his family’s band.
Overall, the reporting focuses on the release of “What We Got,” its link to “Switch Up,” and the involvement of Skyler and Davis Diamond in backing and performances.
