Monsieur Belange’s eagerly awaited single “Jack in the Box” drops tomorrow, April 25, 2025. Blending soulful vocals, rapid-fire rap, and a nostalgic ’90s hip-hop vibe, the track follows “Maccin,” a smooth-talking protagonist who journeys from the streets of Lagos to the vibrant nightlife of Los Angeles, all while making a play at the drive-thru window of the iconic fast-food chain that inspired the chorus.
“One afternoon in summer 2022, I sat outside a Jack in the Box in California, scrolling through Instagram and stumbled on a photo of Kim Kardashian,” recalls Monsieur Belange. “That moment sparked the second verse—it was all about connection, hustle, and chasing dreams wherever they take you.” What began as a simple sandwich break soon became the creative spark for a song that weaves personal anecdote with universal themes of ambition and romance.
Since his debut single “For the Ransom,” Monsieur Belange has earned acclaim from The New York Times and CNN for his candid lyricism and genre-bending sound. With “Jack in the Box,” he deepens that narrative, inviting listeners into a story that feels both intimately autobiographical and broadly relatable, capturing the highs and lows of an immigrant’s hustle set to a buoyant summer beat.
The single will be available on all major platforms via DistroKid starting April 25. Fans can add it immediately on Spotify by searching “Monsieur Belange,” on Apple Music or iTunes under “Monsieur Belange,” or stream the official audio and behind-the-scenes visuals on YouTube at youtube.com/@Monsieurbelange.
