Taras Topolia sings an added verse in Ukrainian which he wrote. He filmed his part of the video on an open road in Kharkiv with the help of his fellow band members and a GoPro camera. They stopped for 10 minutes to record this video and then left because it was dangerous to stay too long in an exposed spot.
On March 29, the "Concert for Ukraine" was planned, a charity event with the collection of funds to support the Ukrainian population during the war. Responding to Ed Sheeran, who became a participant of the event, the band offered to join the concert remotely, from the city of Kyiv, where active hostilities are taking place. Thus, it was planned to show the whole world how strong and unconquered Ukraine is. Despite Ed Sheeran's positive feedback, the organizers of the charity concert refused. The decision is explained by the humanitarian, not military, nature of the event, and therefore they consider it inappropriate for musicians to perform in helmets and with weapons in their hands. After that, Ed Sheeran invited the band to join his song "2step". The band "Antytila" recorded the second verse and chorus of the track in Ukrainian. The band's soloist Taras Topolya emphasized the support of the people of Great Britain for Ukraine in a full-scale war with Russia. "People confirm their principles not only with words, but also with concrete actions," he adds. The song "2step" was dedicated to the memory of Ukrainian director Dmytro Manifest. All funds collected from monetization are transferred to the charity organization Music Saves UA, which provides humanitarian aid to Ukrainians.
Three members of Antytila band - Taras Topolia, Serhiy Vusyk, and Dmytro Zholud are volunteer paramedics fighting as part of the 130th Battalion of Territorial Defense Forces. The other 2 members Mykhailo Chyrko and Dmytro Vodovozov are volunteers in Kyiv area collecting supplies and delivering to the frontline..
On February 25, 2022, after a full-scale attack by Russia and the territory of Ukraine, the band members recorded a video message in which they informed their fans about entering territorial defense. It was on this day that the new album "MLNL" was to be released, which could not be presented due to the war. In the words of the participants, they changed musical instruments to weapons.

re: Ukrainian verse- tells and shows his story on the 1st day of invasion. Waking up to sirens and explosions, Wife and children packed into car going into the unknown. Waved to them, kissed them, How war interrupted their dreams. Wait for me, when this is over I will dance with you. Only left with memories, smell of my beloved wife, inhaling smoke approaching through the city. ... He said it is not just his story, but the story of millions of men who sent their children and wives away and stayed to fight.

It's interesting how so many of the Urkrainian artists are actively fighting and support the war in some way
