In celebration of Father’s Day, Kota The Friend pays homage to the dads on his new single “Father’s Day” off his upcoming album, Memo due July.

On heartfelt track, the Brooklyn rapper, producer and dad examines fatherhood and the false narratives of single fathers.

“My goal is to create an incredible body of work. My life experiences are real and are the life experiences of hundreds of thousands, and in some cases even millions of people around the world.” says Kota. “These experiences are not unique to me, but I have the unique opportunity to put these experiences into my music in a way that we can all relate.” Kota added, “I want to say Happy Father’s Day to all fathers who are there for their kids, but who are still vilified and unappreciated. This song is for you.”
