WHY DO WE FALL? is the latest single from Need a Flex and Kamui. The title takes inspiration from the iconic line in the movie Batman Begins: Why do we fall? It represents the struggle and determination of both artists as they rise above challenges in the music scene.

The track was born during the very first session of Kamui's new Twitch project IN THE BOOTH on RAF_Studio also known as RAFS. In the live stream, Kamui created the prod 3i beat while Need a Flex recorded his flow in real time, capturing the raw energy of the moment. After the stream ended, Kamui added his own vocals, turning it into an official joint single.

Musically, the song blends the aggressive drive of RAGE with a pop sensibility, making the hook both intense and addictive. Lyrical references such as third eye, Cerberus, and Nostradamus highlight the symbolic depth of the track while reflecting the mindset of both artists.

WHY DO WE FALL? stands as the first chapter of IN THE BOOTH and a bold statement aimed at the music scene.
