THROW DAT
Throw Dat (U up)” came together as a tribute to the Miami Hurricanes, one of the most iconic college football teams in the country. Earlier this year, Matt Fella and Solo D teamed up in the studio with the energy of Miami in mind, specifically creating a track that resonates with the Hurricanes’ fans and culture. The track features the signature “U” hand gesture that represents the Hurricanes and ties deeply to the football team’s tradition.
As Miami Hurricanes’ season kicked off, excitement began to build around the team’s prospects. Fans in the Miami area started reaching out to Solo D, urging him to release the track. Timing is everything, and the track is released just before the highly anticipated game against the Florida State Seminoles (FSU) on October 26.
Solo D, with his established platform within the sports scene, especially in Miami, sees major potential for this release. To fully capitalize on the energy of the season, the artist will be in Miami from October 23 to November 13, not only promoting “Throw Dat (U up)” but also working on new music and marketing another single, “Ballin.” Fans, the University of Miami network, and local influencers are expected to rally around this song, giving it immediate traction.
Plans are in place to record a music video featuring the team, fans, and potentially locations within the University of Miami. Adding to the buzz, a close friend of the artist, JD, who is set to be named “Fan of The Year,” will be a key part of the promotion, further embedding the song into the Hurricanes community.
Given Solo D’s significant influence in the sports world, “Throw Dat (U up)” is more than just a seasonal track—it’s set to become a regular anthem for Hurricanes fans year after year.
This collaboration between Matt Fella and Solo D is both a passion project and a tribute to their love for the team and Miami culture. With its infectious energy and ties to the Hurricanes, “Throw Dat (U up)” is poised to be a standout release, not only for sports fans but for the broader Miami music scene.
