Luke “The Dingo” Trembath and mgk formed a friendship built, supporting one another in every endeavor.
mgk describes him as “A true rockstar without ever needing to make a song, the most loyal, loud, charismatic, funny, and annoying human I've ever had the honor of knowing.”

The accompanying music video was directed by Sam Cahill.
It was written by Andrew Migliore, Brandon Allen, Cole Hutzler, Colson Baker, Emma Rosen, John Paul Cappelletty, Nick Long, phem, and Steve Basil. Produced by SlimXX, BazeXX, Nick Long, and No Love For The Middle Child.- mgk shared on social media, “I'ma miss you brother. I hope this song honors your epic legacy. None of this will be the same without you.
Crazy...I didn't even cry this hard when my dad died. I've lost a lot of friends, but I've never lost a brother. We'll never get another Dingo on this planet. a true rockstar without ever needing to make a song, the most loyal, loud, charismatic, funny, and annoying human i've ever had the honor of knowing.”
He continued, “I'll miss your epic toasts, I'll miss dapping you up and my hand hurting everytime because you had some odd amount of Australian strength goin on, I'll miss your bellyflops, I'll miss watching you walk through the door and lifting the energy of every pivotal event in my adult life, i'll miss you pissing me off, but most of all i'll miss your laugh. You were the glue between all of us.” -
He added, “Telling my daughter you're gone was one of my hardest phone calls, because she loved you so much. and I'll never forget when she was too young to understand your name was Dingo so she called you Ping Pong. I feel like your up there with my new child, dressed up in a hilarious costume making them laugh, getting ready to send them down. I couldn't ask for a more bittersweet birth blessing. Life will always be less without you, but legends never die. we'll all miss you brother. DINGO FOREVER.” - source : Apple Music
