The track was released on 27 February 2020 as the second single for Gorillaz' seventh studio album, 'Song Machine, Season One: Strange Timez'. The song is part of the 'Song Machine' project, which is a web series involving the ongoing release of various Gorillaz tracks featuring different guest musicians over the course of 2020. Music videoThe video, directed by Jamie Hewlett, Tim McCourt, and Max Taylor, was filmed at Lake Como in Italy and mainly features band members 2-D, Noodle and Russel Hobbs boating with Diawara and Gorillaz co-creator Damon Albarn after having been transported to the lake via a portal inside Kong Studios, the band's fictional headquarters. Throughout the video, virtual bassist Murdoc Niccals can be seen inside Kong Studios, attempting and failing to cross the portal. ReleaseIn a press release, fictional band member Russel said of the song's recording: "Making 'Dsol' with Fatou was a real moment for me, you know. She's an African Queen. This lady made the song what it is, beautiful, like life. What can I say about 'Dsol'? They say sorry is the hardest word, but that's not true... Try saying antidisestablishmentarianism with a mouth full of gluten-free cronuts on a speed boat without licking your lips."
