We never stopped being brothers”Courtesy of SOBxRBEIn March, Bay Area rap crew SOBxRBE played their first show in seven years. Now Yhung T.O., DaBoii, and Slimmy B have reunited for their first new music in just as long. “Ten Summers” is about “coming back together on our own terms and showing that you can move beyond things that once felt impossible to overcome,” the trio said in a statement. (“Ten Summers” is also a reference to the 10th anniversary of SOBxRBE’s founding, in 2016.) The single and accompanying music video can be found below.“We were young when this started, and there was a lot happening around us that was bigger than music,” they added. “Time gave us the chance to grow up, become fathers and understand what really matters. We never stopped being brothers.”SOBxRBE have two more dates set for the year—at Back 2 the Bay in San Jose and New West Coast in Salt Lake City—but have promised “additional performances” will be shared soon.Revisit Paul Thompson’s Best New Album review of SOBxRBE’s Gangin’.Alex Suskind has overseen music coverage for New York magazine’s Vulture and, before that, Entertainment Weekly.
