More than a decade after Hot Sauce Committee Part Two marked the final Beastie Boys studio release, group member Mike D is officially back with his first solo music. The 60-year-old rapper/producer has dropped “Switch Up,” a loose, genre-blurring cut that emerged from casual home studio sessions with his sons Davis and Skyler Diamond and their band Very Nice Person.

According to a statement, what began as low-stakes experimentation evolved organically through a rotating cast of collaborators and recording locations, giving the song its freewheeling feel. Produced by Carter Lang and Very Nice Person, “Switch Up” was mixed by Derek “MixedByAli” Ali at No Name Studios.

Mike D quietly premiered the track last night during a sold-out pop-up performance at Los Angeles’ Plaza Nightclub & Dance Hall. The intimate gig is part of a string of unconventional small-room appearances that have recently seen him popping up at places like Brothers Marshall Surf Shop in Malibu and the Ojai Valley Woman’s Club. The mini-run continues Sunday at Los Angeles’ Sid the Cat Auditorium before heading east for two nights at Xanadu Roller Arts in Brooklyn, N.Y., on May 22-23.
