"Meditjin", whose title means medicine, arrived on 21 November 2019, a team-up between the Indigenous Australian musician Baker Boy and the Indigenous New Zealand rapper JessB, and Gela, the debut album that followed in 2021, claimed it as its second single. The AFL used it to sell its 2020 season.
The awards piled up. At the 2020 National Indigenous Music Awards it took both Song of the Year and Film Clip of the Year, and Gabriel Gasparinatos's video earned a Best Video nomination at that year's ARIA Music Awards. In 2021 it made the APRA Music Awards shortlist for Song of the Year and finished second in the Vanda & Young Global Songwriting Competition.
