Datkid's "Lead By The Blind" Is Produced by Illinformed and Dumb Logic

By Dani Reyes, November 14, 2026

Datkid has shared "Lead By The Blind," produced by Illinformed and Dumb Logic, with a video that went up on HighFocusTV on November 12, 2026. High Focus Records calls it "single #05 lifted from his anticipated new album 'Very Heavy Lead'," which the label lists for November 26, 2026.

The credits

The label's credit line is short: vocals by Datkid, instrumental by Illinformed and Dumb Logic, video by SLUGS. The album credits sheet in the High Focus press kit goes further. It lists 18 tracks on Very Heavy Lead, every one produced by Illinformed and Dumb Logic, with "Lead By The Blind" closing the record at track 18 and running 3:00. Seven of the 18 carry guest verses.

Before this one, the campaign ran through "Smoked Out," "Narcotic Athletics," a live take of "Uphill Struggle," and "Virus," all of which sit on the album.

Who made it

Datkid's catalog on Apple Music reaches back to Home by 8, a 2012 project. Illinformed has been a High Focus fixture for years, with label releases on Apple going back to 2017, and KAZI covered his Crystal Skull album with Ramson Badbonez on High Focus.

The album

Very Heavy Lead is up for preorder from High Focus as a limited 2x12" Galaxy Splatter vinyl at £32, a limited CD at £12, and a limited tape at £13.

My read

One production team on all 18 tracks is the detail I'd watch here. A full album from a single production pairing makes the beat sheet as much the story as the bars.

More from the desk: KAZI hip-hop.
