Fred again.. is keeping his “Victory Lap” series alive with another high-energy entry. The electronic producer and DJ has unveiled “Victory Lap Three,” adding rising Desi hip-hop artist Hanumankind to a powerhouse lineup that already includes Skepta, PlaqueBoyMax and Denzel Curry.

The latest remix follows a steady rollout of the series, which began on June 17 with the original “Victory Lap” featuring Skepta and PlaqueBoyMax.


The follow-up arrived on July 9 with Florida rapper Denzel Curry bringing his signature rapid-fire flow to the track’s bass-heavy production. Now, Hanumankind joins for the third iteration, delivering verses that highlight his growing international presence.

Hanumankind, who went viral in late 2024 with his track “Big Dawgs” and a remix featuring A$AP Rocky, continues his rise with standout bars on the new track. The Bengaluru-based rapper also references his Indian roots and global ambitions, bringing a unique perspective to the “Victory Lap” project.

Fans first speculated Hanumankind’s involvement after a cryptic cut-off verse at the end of “Victory Lap Two” hinted at another guest appearance. Online buzz suggests more MCs could join the expanding lineup, with listeners speculating that Danny Brown or Ski Mask the Slump God might feature on future versions.

The “Victory Lap” series has been praised for its genre-blending energy, fusing UK grime, U.S. rap, and Fred again..’s dynamic electronic production. Built around a playful Doechii sample and a propulsive bassline, each remix adds new dimensions while keeping the frenetic pace and party-ready vibe intact.

Fred again.. has yet to confirm if additional versions of “Victory Lap” are planned, but the series has already become a viral favorite.

The producer’s last full-length album, Actual Life 3 (January 1 – September 9 2022), peaked at No. 27 on the Billboard 200 in November 2022 and solidified his reputation as one of electronic music’s most innovative voices.
