HOW DID THIS COLLABORATION HAPPEN?
Off the heels of a dominant Summer Finals performance, 100 Thieves was given an opportunity to collaborate with two-time Grammy award winner Lil Nas X. The song that started it all was Lil Nas X’s single “INDUSTRY BABY”, a song adopted by the 100 Thieves LCS team during the competitive season. The team's adoption of the song was noticed by management at Columbia Records and the connections were made through Riot Games.
