In times of Corona, some artists decide to postpone their work. Others get increasingly productive. And in more and more cases, the latter leads to interesting collaborations, with everyone working from their own homes. This is a fine example.

Zen was written virtually. K.Flay and grandson recorded a verse each, and X Ambassadors worked on the final production. The lyrics are about all the thoughts and anxiety someone can face during isolation.

The track comes with a music video directed by K.Flay. Instead of simply the song’s lyrics, it includes explanations on why each artist needs to ‘zen’.
