JIMMY ROCK and Social Club Misfits team up yet again for another iconic collaboration. The single seamlessly blends multiple genres such as Electronic, House, Hip-Hop, and Dance. “IYKYK” will serve as the debut single to ROCK’s next EP entitled, Reflections. ROCK had this to add regarding the new single, “This single represents a full-circle moment for me. Back during the pandemic, I asked “Fern” to add a feature to the song “Won’t Stop” and Marty on the song “Vibes.” Then, I remixed one of their original songs, titled “Welcome To The Club.” I finally got an original song with both of my brothers, and I couldn’t be happier how it turned out!”
