It’s all about riding the surf, sharing laughs, and stealing glances at the beach beauties passing by. Packed with infectious energy and an endless summer vibe, this song captures the joy of good times and the magic of life by the water.

Soulful hip-hop trio Planet Giza just dropped the third and final installment of their latest project, ‘The Sky Is Recording Me: 100 Years Later.’ In this exclusive commentary, vocalist Tony Stone discusses the making of key tracks from the Montreal-based group’s release. The track “Lonely” is as introspective as the title implies. “I felt like the only person in the whole universe,” he says, “I’m happy to hear that a lot of people relate to the song.” Made in LA, the jazzy “The Fall” represents resilience, with Tony sharing it’s about “trying not to fall in the face of adversity.” During the making of “Minding My Business,” he was thinking about OutKast’s “Hey Ya!,” “where the topic doesn’t really match the beat.” Hear more from Planet Giza’s Tony Stone, only on SoundCloud.
