Three sons of Beatles members have joined forces for a new song called "Rip Off."
The track is by Mantra of the Cosmos, a band Zak Starkey, son of Ringo Starr, started in 2023. James McCartney son of Paul McCartney, and Sean Ono Lennon, son of John Lennon, contributed vocals to it.
"It's like Mantra of the Cosmos with them in it," Starkey recently explained in an interview with The Telegraph (via Stereogum). "It's Sean of the Cosmos and James of the Cosmos; it's still my band."

It has been announced what character Paul McCartney will voice in the animated film based on his 2005 children's book, High in the Clouds.
During a video message shown at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival, he said it will be a walrus named Paul McKenzie, a left-handed bassist in a band called The Sweets.
He adds that the character is based on John Lennon because, "If you asked him something, he could always have a quick, snappy answer.”
Ringo Starr will voice The Sweets' drummer, which us an ostrich.
Another character in the film, Sugartail, was inspired by McCartney's late wife Linda.
“I first thought of the idea after my kids’ mum Linda died, and I knew everyone was missing her so much that I thought if we could bring her back in the film, it would be very nice for them. Sugartail is like Linda – she’s strong and resourceful.” (Linda McCartney died in 1998 from cancer at 56.)
Other celebs who will be lending their voices to the film include Celine Dion, Lionel Richie and Jimmy Fallon.
Originally slated to be released in 2015, the story centers on a squirrel looking for the land of Animalia, where animals supposedly live in freedom and without any fear.
In development for over 10 years, it will also feature 18 original songs by McCartney. It's expected to be released in 2027.
While John Lennon wrote The Beatles' song "I Am the Walrus," and he dressed like one in the song's video as well as on the cover of the Magical Mystery Tour album, he sings in the band's "Glass Onion" that "the walrus was Paul."
