To go with this project, El Michels teamed up again with Bobby Oroza for the A side tune which plays along with the collab theme called Stack The Deck. These two proved their chemistry on 2020's "Reasons" which became a fast favourite around the globe. This time El Michels comes with a heavier more orchestrated track that Bobby finds the perfect groove on as he plays up the gamble of love.

The B side is a speaker smashing cover of the late, great, Notorious B.I.G.'s Things Done Changed from his Ready To Die album. El Michels Affair stays close to the tone of the original Easy Mo Bee production but makes it their own with their signature horns and cinematic grit.
