"Panda" was Desiigner's debut single, premiered in December 2015 and pushed out again on February 26, 2016, on Kanye West's GOOD Music. He wrote it with Adnan Khan and Menace produced it, and it lands as trap with swagger to burn, a rookie's calling card that doesn't wait for permission.

West, the label's founder, sampled it heavily for "Pt. 2" on The Life of Pablo, his seventh studio album, and a pile of remixes followed. By year's end it sat on top of Billboard's Year-End Hot Rap Songs chart for 2016. At the 59th Grammy Awards it was up for Best Rap Performance, and its video, released that May, earned a Best Hip Hop Video nod at the MTV Video Music Awards.
