The Cohort, also known as The Underwater Squad, is a popular Korean hip hop crew recognized for the killer whale as their symbol. In May 2017, members Okasian, Bfree, and Bryan Chase came together to release the mixtape Dis//Connect. The album cover draws inspiration from 1990s art and graffiti, retro street fashion, and the vibrant energy of PUMP and KOF games.

Another video for Rafs by The Cohort was created with similar style.
