“While making the song I was heavily watching the film ‘Tenet,’ hence the name of the track. The song to me really just represents what the 2022 version of Orion has to offer,” he said in a press release. “I really get to showcase just how much my melodies and wordplay has evolved. Basically, this is the appetizer to what me and my team have been cooking up.”

Afterward, he solidified his soon-to-be-legendary run with an anticipated project, Cyberpunk, a five-year-in-the-making album that includes 12 new tracks and VR game. The album spawned buzzing tracks such as “Love / Switch,” “Epidemic,” and “Constellation.”
