Dillon & Batsauce embody the energy of Mad Magazine’s Spy vs. Spy’s comic strip in the clever and unique new video for “Banana Peels,” which features animation by Batsauce himself.

“This classic comic was something my Pop loved and passed on to me,” Dillon explains. He adds that Spy vs. Spy reminds him of today’s rap game, because it’s full of people who look, act, and sound the same, all while trying to sabotage each other. “Myself included, I guess,” he says while laughing, “Though I’m too old for that.”

Dillon knew that his collaborator, producer Batsauce, would be up for the video’s theme as a former art teacher who happened to learn animation during the pandemic. He also created a Spy vs. Spy-themed beat tape years ago, so everything really just fell into place for these visuals. To top it all off, the track itself has a menacing, old-school super villain sound to it, making it the perfect canvas for Batsauce to do his thing. The duo’s new album, What Have We Done, drops July 12 through FULL PLATE
