Under the Sun (Dreamville, J. Cole and Lute song)

It also has extra vocals from fellow American rapper Kendrick Lamar, who performs the short two-lined chorus of the song.

[3][4][5] In February, Dreamville gave a live preview of the song after the NBA All-Star game – which J. Cole was the halftime show performer, during the free concert in Charlotte.

I heard that in a room with [co-producer] Pluss, and I knew he could put some dope Southern drums on and make it a good song.

[10] The music video for the song was released on September 16, 2019, on the official Dreamville YouTube channel and has 74 million views as of January 2025.

It was directed by Scott Lazer, Aisultan Seitov, David Peters, and Chad Tennies, and produced by Tripp Kramer.
