Flatbush Zombies’ Erick the Architect drops disco single after Apple collab

Erick the Architect, founding member and primary producer of Flatbush Zombies, has a new single out. It’s called “No Doubt (I’m In Love).” The track leans disco and reggae. It’s a shift from the group’s darker, grittier sound.

Yeti Beats and Federico Vindver produced it. Erick is the primary producer for the group, so his taste matters. They’ve toured the world. They’ve played Coachella. They’ve appeared on Kimmel and Fallon. They’ve worked with Joey Bada$$, RZA, James Blake, and hardcore punk band Trash Talk.

His most unexpected collab so far was with Apple. He showed up after Tim Cook’s final WWDC presentation. He rapped about apps on stage. That was a precursor. This new single is the real release.

The headline says he misses his BlackBerry keyboard. The story is an interview with The Verge. It covers his career, the Apple moment, and the new track. The excerpt notes he’s a producer, not just a rapper. The full story is at The Verge.

Why this matters for us: when Brown creatives like Erick the Architect shift sound and collaborate with big tech, it signals the community’s reach and taste — and reminds us that art, hustle, and culture outlast any app or keyboard.
