American Musical
Watch the Duck (WTD, stylized as WATCH THE DUCK) is an American musical duo from Montgomery, Alabama, United States. Their 2012 song, "Poppin’ Off" was added to mtvU's regular rotation. The group signed with Pharrell's i am OTHER, an imprint of Interscope Records in 2017. Their 2018 single, "There You Are" was described as "a more intimate and personal sound starring Jesse's R&amp;B vocal" and a "feel-good record that encourages listeners to stay in the moment, and move with whatever feelings come from being in the present."
History.
Watch the Duck was formed by friends Eddie Smith III, Jesse Rankins, and former member Jonathan Wells. All three were DJs, producers, and musicians originally from Montgomery, Alabama but moved to Atlanta, Georgia in 2010. The name of the group comes from a phrase that they use to describe society's obsession with keeping up appearances. Smith has been quoted as saying, "Everyone sees a duck floating smoothly on top of the water, but one rarely pays attention to how hard it kicks underneath to get where it's going."
