New York, NY — [January 27] — Multidisciplinary artist Reuben Reuel collaborates with producer Dank Delish on the emotionally charged single, “I BUILT A FORTRESS!,” an introspective exploration of setting boundaries and healing from past traumas. The track also features contributions from artists abc sadboy and Solute, blending diverse perspectives to create a powerful narrative of self-discovery and connection.
“I BUILT A FORTRESS!” serves as a poignant chapter in Dank Delish’s upcoming album, METACOGNITION, set for release on January 28.

The track’s production spanned two years, with multiple revisions to ensure a seamless flow that accommodates each artist’s distinctive style. Reuben Reuel’s contribution is especially impactful, drawing from his rich musical influences, including disco, jazz, R&B, and electronic/house music.
