Dropped May 27th, 2025, “Shades On” is a single that clocks in at just under three minutes, but it packs a punch that’ll have you hitting repeat all summer long.

Musically, “Shades On” is a danceable, high-energy track giving it that euphoric, feel-good bounce that’s perfect for any adventure or when you just chilling.

Chase’s flow is effortless, and the lyrics are all about seizing the moment, shaking off the past, and stepping into the light—literally and metaphorically. Lines like “The sun been on my side / Onto new horizons, yeah / God been on my line / Oh, the future blinding / So put your shades on and find your way home” capture that feeling of optimism and forward motion
