Archivado en: feid  •  

Feid is back and stronger than ever with his new single ‘ANDO XXIL,’ a track built on a solid, bass-heavy foundation that brings back the essence of ’90s and early 2000s rap—eras that played a key role in shaping his musical style. The song blends a classic hip-hop structure with straightforward, unfiltered lyrics, creating a sound where nostalgia and modern influences coexist effortlessly.

The release comes with a music video full of early-2000s retro aesthetics, featuring visual nods to that era throughout. One of the standout moments is the appearance of legendary skater Tony Hawk, a cultural icon for an entire generation. From gaming sessions to laid-back scenes around Italy, the video captures a mix of fun and reflection, showing Feid balancing his growing global fame with a sense of authenticity, always surrounded by his closest people.

But beyond the visuals, ‘Ando XXIL’ is also a deeply personal release. The lyrics, rich in introspection and cultural references, show how his daily life, surroundings, and creative process are all connected.

Lines like “No tengo moza, tengo musa” (“I don’t have a side chick, I have a muse”) and “Haciendo barras en el gym y en el estudio” (“Dropping bars at the gym and in the studio”) reflect a clear mindset built on discipline, focus, and artistic purpose.

This track captures Feid’s current creative moment and reinforces his unique identity in the music scene. With minimalist but powerful production, ‘Ando XXIL’ stands out as a project he wrote, produced, and performed himself—a full-circle statement of where he is and where he’s headed.

‘ANDO XXIL’ English Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I sound like the chamber of a saint, I’m no longer on the bench
Won over the mother-in-law with my charm
I don’t leave the ranch
FERXXO on a beat is like hiccups in a hook (unexpected but strong)
It’s been a while since I rolled a joint
I don’t smoke anymore, sorry—I’m with Tony Hawk doing ollies
I’m always happy, always holy (Ey)
In Naples eating a pepperoni pizza
I heal myself, I chill smoking a cigar
I wish the best for everyone
Lots of murmurs, but I can see the future
Hope they don’t crash into this wall, ey
I’m a boss—whatever flow you want, I bring it
You want to take some? I’ll pack it for you
They don’t call me «OG Skinny» anymore like back at La Caverna de Baco
Wearing Salomons on my feet, ey, yo

[Bridge]

When I step up to the mic
It’s always art—we make paintings, I frame them
One-on-one, I hook them every time
Always fresh, mixing street style with fashion
FERXXO’s lyrics are always in the captions
Tatted arms, we’re making noise
We do it for passion, not for money, bro
I always follow my intuition, ey

[Verse 2]

Dropping bars at the gym and in the studio
They say success got to my head—anyone saying that, I dismiss
I focus on my own, you focus on yours
I’ve never envied what’s yours
In this life, I always want peace
I ask God to never let me miss a beat
Health and long life to my dad and my mom
And may my sister stay with me, no matter what
I don’t have a side chick, I’ve got a muse, je
Your girl listens to FERXXO whenever she’s heartbroken (tusa)—how about that?
Up early, no excuses
I’ve been grinding for this for five years—everything you wear, I wore back then
Money was tight, but I set up shop
I talk to God because He’s always got my back
Music, business—we move the masses
Sometimes I can’t even believe what’s happening to us
