TAKE A DAYTRIP PRODUCER TAG

Who says the Take a Daytrip producer tag?

Uncredited — the duo has never publicly named the voice. Denzel Baptiste and David Biral met at NYU's Clive Davis Institute and started Take a Daytrip in 2014, almost as a class project.

What does Take a Daytrip's tag say?

The tag is “Daytrip took it to ten”. You can hear it on “Mo Bamba” by Sheck Wes (2017).

What song was the Take a Daytrip tag first heard on?

It was made famous by Mo Bamba (Sheck Wes) in 2017. Earlier uses may exist; this is the record that made the tag recognisable.

Who voiced the Take a Daytrip tag — and where did it come from?

Denzel Baptiste and David Biral met at NYU's Clive Davis Institute and started Take a Daytrip in 2014, almost as a class project. The stuttering, pitched-up “d-d-Daytrip took it to ten” became their calling card — though unusually for a tag this famous, they've never said who recorded it.

“Mo Bamba” (2017) took the drop from NYU dorm rooms to stadium chants, and Lil Nas X made it a pop fixture: “Panini”, “Montero”, and “Industry Baby” all open with a Daytrip announcement.

It's the rare tag that works at pop scale — a two-second hype meter that tells you the record is about to max out, which is exactly what “took it to ten” promises.

What songs use the Take a Daytrip tag?

• Mo Bamba — Sheck Wes (2017)

• Industry Baby — Lil Nas X & Jack Harlow (2021)
