"Illegal" on YouTube |
"Illegal" is a song by English singer-songwriter and record producer PinkPantheress. It was released on 6 June 2025 [2] through Warner Records as the third single from her second mixtape Fancy That . The song samples "Dark & Long (Dark Train)" by Underworld. [3] [4]
‘Illegal’ feels like coming home, it’s garage, gritty, and takes me right back to where I started with music. I’ve always loved that raw, late-night energy, and sampling Underworld felt like the perfect way to tap into that spirit while making it my own.
On March 17, 2025, PinkPantheress posted a video on TikTok showcasing a snippet of the song with the caption: "Vetting my boyfriend to become a proffecient filmer for these occasions." The song was later teased on March 28, 2025, on The Lot Radio, during PinkPantheress' DJ set.
The music video for "Illegal", directed by Ethan & Tom, was released on 9 May 2025, the same day as the song's release. [5] [6]
