Listen to ‘Nobody Like U’ from Turning Red’s Animated Boy Band 4*Town

One of the main plot elements of Disney Pixar’s Turning Red is that lead girl Mei Lee and her friends are obsessed with a boy band called ‘4*Town’ , and though we expect to see some of the band in the movie, Disney Music VEVO has released a full song from the fictional band titled Nobody Like U.

The entire concept of 4*Town is essentially a jab at boy bands, and is kind of a mix of the ‘90s era boy bands like the Backstreet Boys with modern boy bands like BTS. Even the ‘*’ in the name looks to be a jab at *NYSNC who also used the asterisk for some edgy flourish.

The song was actually written by Billie Eilish and her brother Finneas who is also voicing one of the 4*Town boys. The song was also arranged by Ludwig Gorranson, who Disney fans will remember as the same composer for Disney+’s hit show The Mandalorian.

Though Pixar has set a gold standard when it comes to their storytelling, their latest entry Luca seems to be a return to a simpler format. While Turning Red doesn’t look to be answering any ‘big’ questions like Inside Out or Soul, it does seem like we’ll be getting a simple movie about growing up and coping with the angst that comes with it.

Disney and Pixar’s “Turning Red” introduces Mei Lee (voice of Rosalie Chiang), a confident, dorky 13-year-old torn between staying her mother’s dutiful daughter and the chaos of adolescence. Her protective, if not slightly overbearing mother, Ming (voice of Sandra Oh), is never far from her daughter—an unfortunate reality for the teenager. And as if changes to her interests, relationships and body weren’t enough, whenever she gets too excited (which is practically ALWAYS), she “poofs” into a giant red panda!

Catch Turning Red when it hits Disney+ on March 11.
