Dante Jones and Drew Love - better known as THEY. - return with a new track from their forthcoming debut, "U-RITE." The new song arrives with the launch of THEY.'s new merch site that features their amorphous, moniker: http://unofficialthey.com/.
"We both miss those classic Miami Bass bangers from the 90s," explains Dante to Complex. "Those were songs that brought our people together and, to this day, make people get out of their seats the moment they come on." "We were sitting in the studio basically done with the album and Dante was going through sounds and I heard that siren," adds Drew. "I knew we could turn that into a record."

The Denver and D.C.-bred duo has released three other tracks - "Say When," "Deep End"," and "What You Want" - as a glimpse into their upcoming album Nü Religion: Hyena and rife with "hip-hop and R&B style, girded by rock sensibilities" (Noisey)
With award-winning production and songwriting solo work with other artists, the VIBE: NEXT finally met in Los
Angeles in the summer of 2013 through a mutual friend and immediately clicked on their eclectic tastes. Under the guidance of mentor and renowned producer Timbaland, THEY. started to meld their diverse musical background to create their "grunge'n'b" sound.
Following their hit collaboration with
Skrillex and Mind of a Genius friend and label mate ZHU "Working For It," THEY. dropped their acclaimed 3-track Nü Religion EP which has racked in tens of millions of streams on Soundcloud and Spotify. The EP would lead to an opening slot on Bryson Tiller's worldwide "T R A P S O U L" tour, a performance on the Pigeons & Planes
stage at the inaugural ComplexCon, and touring with PARTYNEXTDOOR and
Jeremih for their "Summer's Over" tour. Nü Religion: Hyena arrives this February via Mind of a Genius and Warner Bros. Records.
"U-RITE" is available now at Spotify, iTunes and Soundcloud
