“Badge and Gun,” featuring saxophonist Jonny Diggens charted on iTune’s Electronic genre in 11 countries, including the US at number 3 and UK at number 18.
I've been taken by surprise by how “Badge and Gun” went viral across social media, particularly on TikTok, with Jonny Diggen’s original saxophone duet getting used in 22K reels and my original audio in 7K reels.
It’s had 6.5m total plays on Instagram across reels using it as audio for a nostalgia trend that uses A.I generated images of 80s interior design and imagined lost locations.
Badge and Gun initially went viral on TikTok last year, was covered on Chicago local news after it received 2 million plays, now sitting at 4 million plays with the caption "P.O.V: It's 1986 and you've just handed in your badge and gun after things went bad".
