Planetary & WRD Life’s “Special Invite” is a boom-bap summons you don’t want to miss. The new single and video arrive under the banner Lords of the Fly, produced by ELEMXNT.
Philadelphia stalwart Planetary—best known as ½ of OuterSpace and a longtime member of Army of the Pharaohs—links with WRD Life for a razor-edged cipher that doubles as a mission statement. Dropping on October 31, 2025, “Special Invite” officially introduces their trio moniker Lords of the Fly (Planetary x WRD Life x ELEMXNT) and plants a flag squarely in the indie trenches.
First things first: the release is live on Bandcamp as a name-your-price digital single, complete with high-quality formats for the collectors who still download, and is being pushed in tandem with a video rollout on socials and YouTube. That means heads can stream, support directly, and then take the visual for a spin without leaving the underground ecosystem.
The chemistry clicks because the lineage is real. Planetary’s resume runs deep, OuterSpace, AOTP, collabs across the East Coast hardcore map, so hearing him spar with WRD Life gives the record an inter-borough charge: Philly grit sharpened by WRD Life’s Queens-hewn, bilingual swagger showcased across his recent feeds. It’s a pairing that feels inevitable, and “Special Invite” is the proof-of-concept.
Production matters, and this beat knocks. ELEMXNT, who carved a growing rep producing Planetary’s solo work, supplies the backbone here, continuing a run that underground outlets have already spotlighted. Expect dust-coated drums, sample-driven tension, and room for bar work, exactly the palette that keeps word-first Hip-Hop breathing in 2025.
Rollout-wise, the trio teased the drop with “This Halloween we dropping our first single,” aligning the spooky-season energy with a classic boom-bap tapping of the mic. The campaign threaded Instagram reels and channel premieres, pushing the name Lords of the Fly and pointing fans to “full song and video in bio.” For a grassroots team, the coordination is tight and effective.
If you’re crate-digging for new underground Hip-Hop singles and videos 2025, circle this one. It ticks the right boxes for heads who still prize pen game, pocket, and replay-ready cuts that flip from headphones to radio shows without losing texture. Planetary and WRD Life sound locked in, ELEMXNT brings the smoke, and the visual gives the bars a concrete backdrop—no algorithm bait, just craft. Start with Bandcamp to support directly, then run up the video to spread the word.
Now it’s your special invite—tap in, share it with your crew, and keep Lords of the Fly on your radar as this campaign unfolds.
