The song marks his first solo release after Versatile split.
Eskimo Supreme (Alex Sheehan) has dropped his first solo release 'Is Your Brother?' after his exit from Irish rap crew Versatile.
The track delivers a hard-hitting message about substance abuse. It demonstrates a fusion of hip-hop and dance, diving into the temptations of drugs and partying, with the title coming from the chorus, “Is your brother doing a six-er for a one-er?”.
The release is paired with a music video depicting a cautionary tale about addiction, delivered by real-life motivational speaker Aidan Redmond who stars in the video.
The music video is a "conceptualised ad" starring Eskimo himself dressed as a devil. In the short film, the Dublin rapper is shown wreaking havoc across town under the influence.

This is the first solo venture from Eskimo Supreme, real name Alex Sheehan, since exiting Versatile. Following their 2017 debut, they have gone on to achieve hundreds of millions of streams independently and selling out major venues like Dublin's 3Arena. In January 2020, they won Best Hip Hop Act at the Urban Music Awards.
Versatile have also collaborated with U.S. hip-hop legends, including Grammy-winner Coolio on ‘Escape Wagon’ and Eminem’s crew D12 on ‘Panic Attack - D12 Remix’. In 2023, they toured globally, opening for Snoop Dogg.
