Djo

As the follow-up to his previous album DECIDE, Keery produced The Crux with his frequent collaborators Adam Thein and Wesley Toledo at Electric Lady Studios in New York City. Three singles—" Basic Being Basic", released on January 24, 2025, "Delete Ya", February 27, 2025, and "Potion", April 2nd 2025 —preceded the album. To promote The Crux, Djo is embarking on the Back on You World Tour 2025 with Post Animal. On August 1st, 2025, Djo played at Chicago's Lollapalooza for his second time-- first time being earlier in 2022. Later in 2026 he will also play at the South America Lollapalooza dates. On September 8, 2025, Djo surprise-released Carry The Name and posted an Instagram story asking if he should release more music. Over the next two days, September 9 and 10, he released It's Over and Awake, once again sharing Instagram stories that included the message “More?”. On September 11, Djo announced that something would be released at midnight on September 12, though he mistakenly wrote “pm” instead of “am,” later joking in another story that he didn’t know how to write the time. Finally, on September 12, 2025, the deluxe edition of The Crux was released, featuring 12 additional tracks, making it Djo’s first album to have a deluxe version. Likely in support of the deluxe edition, on May 2, 2025, Djo announced an extension called the “Another Bite Tour,” which would begin on September 24, 2025 with shows like All Things Go and Los Angeles' Greek Theatre later in October.
