*''Crashing Into Your Living Room, Vol. 1'' (2024)
The clip quickly went viral on social media platform TikTok with over 49 million views, and shot the band into the spotlight.

A few months later, a similar occurrence happened again in the same location while the band was performing their song "Destination". Rapper Kingvvibe5285 performed a freestyle rap which quickly gained popularity on TikTok.

This viral popularity has led to the band creating their recent "Can you rap in public" series, where the video that achieves the most votes on YouTube will appear within the official remix.
