Artist, creator, producer and weird kid forever, Shawn Wasabi returns with his first appetizing single of 2020, “HOME RUN.” Following a string of successful hits last year including  “SNACK,” and “MARBLE TEA,” Wasabi’s latest track arrives as a nostalgic nod to one of his favorite millennial vending machine snack pies of the same name. Featuring favored collaborators Raychel Jay, Hollis, and Brandon Colbein, the single also received the polished professional touch of globally renowned pop-hitmaker and Facet House co-founder, Justin Tranter. 

Wasabi’s recipe for flavorful lyricism is perfected in “HOME RUN” as vocalist Raychel Jay tongue-in-cheek sings, ‘keep you wired like a matcha’ and ‘maybe skip a few bases make a donut.’
