The frequent collaborators channel pain, prison, and perseverance into one of their most vulnerable tracks to date.
Mozzy and YFN Lucci reunite for a deeply personal and emotionally charged new track titled “23 AND 1,” shedding light on the mental toll of incarceration, street life, and survival. Known for their authenticity, both artists use the soulful beat as a space to reflect on everything they’ve endured — and everything they’ve lost.
The title, “23 AND 1,” refers to the solitary confinement setup where inmates spend 23 hours in a cell and just one hour out. That isolation, both physical and emotional, is felt throughout the song as Mozzy speaks on near-death experiences and broken trust, while Lucci, recently released from jail, opens up about time lost and the mental weight that comes with it.
Though soft in tone, the track is heavy in substance. Their verses are delivered with introspection and sincerity, balancing vivid storytelling with heartfelt emotion — a hallmark of both artists’ catalogs.
This isn’t the first time Mozzy and Lucci have joined forces, but “23 AND 1” might be one of their most affecting collaborations to date. It’s less about flexing and more about healing — both for themselves and the communities they represent.
“23 AND 1” is available now on all major streaming platforms.
