ATLANTA’S DEREZ DE’SHON RETURNS WITH NEW SINGLE “FRFR” FEATURING MORRAY AND T RELL
RECORDED ABOUT TRAUMA, TRUTH, AND SURVIVAL, THE SINGLE CONTINUES DEREZ DE’SHON’S SERIES OF RELEASES LEADING INTO HIS UPCOMING ALBUM LATER THIS YEAR
[LOS ANGELES, CA] – Pain music pioneer Derez De’Shon returned with his new single “FRFR” featuring Morray and T Rell, out now via Cinq Music, a GoDigital Musiccompany. Recorded about trauma, truth, and survival, “FRFR” continues Derez’s series of releases leading into his upcoming album later this year and stands as one of the most personal records in his catalog to date. Rather than masking the weight of his experiences with adversity and substance use, the track leans directly into them, capturing the reality of battling inner pain while trying to remain grounded through his signature melodic delivery and raw storytelling.
The collaboration further amplifies the emotional core of the song. Morray delivers a soulful and deeply reflective performance that heightens the record’s vulnerability, while T Rell brings a grounded perspective rooted in resilience and real-life experience. Together, the three artists create a record that balances pain with perseverance, offering listeners something that feels universally relatable.
Known for helping pioneer the melodic “pain rap” movement, Derez De’Shon has built a loyal following through emotionally direct songwriting and Southern trap melodies. From his breakout certified Gold single “Hardaway” to acclaimed projects like Pain 1, 2 & 3 and Bigger Than Me, his music has consistently bridged street sensibility with introspection, earning collaborations with artists including Birdman, Lil Baby, Lil Durk, Mozzy, and Moneybagg Yo.
“FRFR” also arrives as part of a broader creative evolution for Derez, one centered on growth, fatherhood, and transparency. While still carrying the edge and emotional weight that defined his rise, this new chapter reflects a matured perspective as he builds momentum toward his upcoming album I’m Not OK But…, a deeply personal body of work exploring healing, recovery, and resilience. Through each release, Derez continues transforming pain into purpose, creating music that listeners can not only hear, but genuinely feel.
Derez De’Shon’s “FRFR” featuring Morray x T Rell is available now across all major streaming and digital platforms. Listen and download HERE.
About Derez De’Shon
Derez De’Shon stands as a cornerstone of Atlanta’s “pain music” scene, an artist whose gravelly vocals and unflinching honesty redefined the emotional boundaries of Southern trap. Nearly a decade since “Hardaway” transformed his life from homelessness to multi-platinum success, Derez has evolved from a local underdog into a “Southside OG” and a practitioner of Yoruba whose faith deeply informs his creative output. After a period of intentional seclusion to focus on his sobriety, mental health, and his role as a father, he re-emerged in 2026 with a sharpened sense of purpose. This new era was signaled by the powerful release of “Southside God,” a track that celebrated his roots and spiritual resilience, performed live at the Georgia State Capitol in a historic tribute to his community.
His 2026 return is anchored by the upcoming album I’m Not OK But…, a project that strips away the typical industry bravado to offer a survival guide for the soul. The album serves as a raw documentation of his journey through depression and recovery, bridging the gap between his legendary Pain series and his current role as a mentor in the industry. To amplify this message of resilience, Derez has enlisted a heavy-hitting roster of collaborators who share his melodic grit, featuring T Rell, Morray, and BHM Peezy, among others. By leaning into his vulnerabilities rather than masking them, Derez continues to lead a movement of authenticity, proving that true strength lies in the courage to admit when you aren’t okay while continuing to push forward.
