History

The duo started producing in 2014.[4] They have produced many hit singles, with their first notable one being "Mo Bamba" by Sheck Wes in 2017, which peaked at number six on the Billboard Hot 100.[5] Their highest-charting single currently is "The Scotts" by Travis Scott and Kid Cudi, which peaked at number one on the Billboard Hot 100 in May 2020.[6]

In October 2019, two Atlanta producers, Don Lee and Glen Keith Demeritt III, claimed that the Lil Nas X and Cardi B song "Rodeo" was a copy of the song "Broad Day" by PuertoReefa and Sakrite Duexe, which they produced. The two sued Lil Nas X, Cardi B, and Take a Daytrip.[7] Neither of the two members of the duo have responded to the lawsuit.[8] As of March 2020, the case is ongoing.[9]
