HOLLYWOOD UNDEAD Join Forces With IMANBEK For “Runaway” Single

Platinum-selling, genre-bending LA trailblazers Hollywood Undead team up with Kazakh-born, GRAMMY-winning electronic producer Imanbek for a brand-new single, “Runaway.” Check out the track via the visualizer below.

An unexpected collaboration, “Runaway” is the product of pandemic-time creativity and mutual respect of each other’s craft with a hooky melody and message that transcends any border. The single is released via BMG and Sony Music, in collaboration with Effective Records in Russia and Eastern Europe, aiming to connect the globe with an uplifting message that “during the darkest days, I’ll never Runaway.”

At just 20 years old, Imanbek has had a breakthrough year – he won the 2021 “Best Remixed Recording” GRAMMY Award for his remix of SAINt JHN’s “Roses.” Having remixed and collaborated with a wide variety of artists from Dua Lipa to Marshmello, he now joins rap/rock icons Hollywood Undead – a group he’s been a longtime fan of.

“Working with Imanbek was a huge honor for the band,” Hollywood Undead’s J3T says about the collaboration. “He’s a visionary in every respect with the talent to match.”

Imanbek also shares his excitement, saying, “It’s been a great pleasure to work on this project with Hollywood Undead! The pandemic taught us to work and collaborate despite distances and inconvenience and I think each take only gets better. Here’s our brand-new track as a result – we’d put our soul in it and I hope you guys will like it!”
