With “Formidable (For Me Dabla),” Kass’ lyrics explore the importance of embracing joy and letting go of heaviness. Adoringly, the song was inspired by the childhood memory of his sister.

“When I was a kid, my sister and I used to watch scary movies,” shared Kass in a press release. “She always made sure that we watched an episode of Friends afterward, to cleanse us of cinematic trauma.” He comments, “That’s what this song is.”
