Grammy-Award-winning producer and artist Mustard surprises fans by dropping another song just days before the release of his highly anticipated new album, Faith of a Mustard Seed due this Friday July 26. This time, Mustard teamed up with Roddy Ricch and Ella Mai for the track, ‘One Bad Decision’. LISTEN HERE + PRE-SAVE THE LP HERE.

Arriving in the wake of his rap debut with 10 minute epic ‘Pray For Me‘ and triple j playlisted ‘Parking Lot‘ featuring Travis Scott, this collaboration follows their previous electrifying 7x platinum hit ‘Ballin” from Mustard’s Perfect 10 album, released five years ago. Since then, Mustard and Roddy have continued to collaborate on various projects, once again coming together to create another dynamic track.

Ella Mai opens ‘One Bad Decision’ with an emotionally charged delivery, setting the stage for a narrative of heartbreak and betrayal. Roddy Ricch follows with a raw and confessional verse. Their lyrics paint a vivid picture of a tumultuous relationship on the brink of collapse due to infidelity and distrust. The song’s gripping storyline captures the intensity of emotions that arise from love, betrayal, and the dire consequences of one bad decision.

‘One Bad Decision’ showcases the seamless blend of Ella Mai’s soulful vocals and Roddy Ricch’s gritty rap delivery, all brought together by Mustard’s masterful production. The track’s distinct chord progressions and intricate beats highlight Mustard’s unique approach to music production, setting it apart from his previous work. Mustard’s forthcoming album Faith of a Mustard Seed promises to explore a diverse range of themes and sounds, reflecting his evolution as an artist and his commitment to delivering groundbreaking music. Stay tuned for the album’s release on July 26.

Multi-platinum and Grammy-winning artist Mustard has achieved a serious milestone as 2024 marks the 10th anniversary of 10 Summers Records and over a decade of success for the South Los Angeles native. A triple-threat, Mustard has mastered several facets of the industry as an accomplished producer, DJ, and artist. Since his 2010 debut, he has reigned as a pioneer of urban sound, serving chart-toppers to some of music’s biggest names, including Kendrick Lamar, Rihanna, YG, Jhene Aiko, Roddy Ricch, and more.

Through his imprint, 10 Summers Records, Mustard has been able to shine as both an artist and music executive. Possessing a keen eye for discovering talent, Mustard shocked the world by introducing his artist and protégé, Ella Mai. The U.K. songstress’ record-breaking rise to fame included the release of her 2018 RIAA Certified 2x-platinum album, Ella Mai, executive-produced by Mustard, and a 7x platinum lead single, ‘Boo’d Up’. As an artist, Mustard has been equally impressive with his third studio album, Perfect 10, reaching RIAA Certified Platinum. He performed his 7x platinum hit ‘Pure Water’ during the 2019 BET Awards and his 8x platinum single, ‘Ballin”, featuring Roddy Ricch on Jimmy Fallon; the latter earned him a Grammy nomination for “Best Rap Song Performance”.

Mustard maintains a year-round schedule, complete with a residency at the esteemed Marquee Nightclub in Las Vegas, as well as his very own festival, Summers Fest. His work earned him the coveted DJ of the Year at the 2019 BET Hip Hop Awards. Working to build lasting success, Mustard made a major announcement in 2019 when he inked a Global Publishing Deal through Sony/ATV. In 2020, Mustard was named Producer of the Year in Variety’s Hitmakers issue and received the 2021 ASCAP Pop Music Award for both ‘Ballin’’ and ‘High Fashion’, both being the most performed ASCAP songs of 2020. Summer 2024 is off to a great start for the mogul, who received his first No. 1 debut on the Billboard Hot 100 chart with Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Not Like Us’ garnering over 96 million streams, making it the most streamed song in a seven-day period and Kendrick’s biggest release to date.
