" All My Friends" is a song by British production duo Snakehips, featuring American recording artists Tinashe and Chance the Rapper.It’s pretty common in music circles to encounter people who have spent literally decades trying to identify an obscure song on an old mixtape. It was released as a single on 21 October 2015 by Sony Music UK and Columbia Records. It won the Ivor Novello Award for Best Contemporary Song in May 2016. On Genius, Snakehips summarised the song: "We wanted to make something that had a classic hip-hop groove and gospel vibes but then have some modern more electronic sounds going on too. We made the beat and wrote the hook last year in London. We thought Tinashe and Chance would be the perfect vocalists for it and so we reached out to them. It was recorded in a few different places and we never all got into the studio at once just because everyone’s schedules were so crazy!" We never really expected to be able to make it happen as they were both huge artists doing their own thing, but they both were into it and we managed to put it all together. Regarding the chorus ("All my friends are wasted / And I hate this club, man I drink too much / Another Friday night I've wasted / My eyes are black and red, I'm crawling back to your bed"), the duo said: "We wrote the hook and came up with the concept with our writing partner Cass Lowe last year. And yeah we've had a load of whack nights out in the past, I think it's something everyone can relate to." We thought it would be cool to do an anti-party track that kinda sounded uplifting at the same time and had some gospel vibes to it. In an interview with the Official Charts Company, Snakehips member Ollie Lee explained that the song is not about one particular story, but "really just about years of bad nights out. Living in London!" When asked about how the collaboration came about, Lee continued, "I have no idea to be honest with you.
