A preview of the episode that includes a bit of the song was just released

Also the synopsis of the episode is out along with ones for The Morning Report, The Little Guy and Divide and Conquer.

Looks like a good episode. We get to see another kingdom outside of The Pride Lands (I assume).

It sounds like Divide and Conquer will not be what I thought it would be about, but it still sounds like a great episode.

I like the vocal arrangements in the little clip they put out, although there's one particular chord when they say "Dhahabu" in the chorus that sounds off to me. I think it's more because the lower harmonies are louder than the lead voicing rather than a wrong chord. Anyway, I'm being musically nit-picky; if Dhahabu (Reneé Elise Goldsberry) actually sings on this, it could be a solid good song for me just by her performance alone, as long as her lyrics aren't too cheesy.

Also, am I the only one who thinks the male zebra character looks kind of like llama Kuzco from The Emperor's New Groove?

i love the fact that the zebra is going to be golden, since i am a huge fan of things that are golden. like golden retrievers and stuff. the song seems nice, let's hope that there will be more nice songs to come!

It's out. It was decent. I liked that Steve Blum returned as that leopard again. I'll always love his voice.

A decent filler episode. Glad they brought back Makucha.

For a filler episode it was good. It was nice to see Makucha again, and for a moment I thought he'd end up joining Scar at the end of the episode, but for now we can only wait and see if the leopards do decide to join him.

also this is the first episode to mention the backlands? An area outside of the pridelands that Simba has no control over, but unlike the outlands it doesn’t seem like a completely terrible place to live.

No "The Trouble With Galagos" introduced us to The Back Lands as well as Badili

I liked seeing Makucha again as well as finding out that he has friends that aren't Mapigano.

Bunga's Crush on Dhahabu was underplayed, I think this was a good thing. I also thought it was funny that Bunga actually thought Simba was sending The Lion Guard to take over Dhahabu waterhole.

The Back Lands don't seem to have been hit as hard by the dry season.

Fuli was so cute at the end with her reluctant celebration.

Perhaps it is a simultaneous attack from The Back Lands and The Outlands that forces The Lion Guard to fight on two fronts in Divide and conquer?

Makucha has a clan! That was a nice surprise, I also loved the cheerfull Dhahabu, kind of like the popular cheerleader girl, but she feels responible for her friends and turns out to be a good leader with courage in the end. That song was so catchy. I might watch this episode again, it was nice and cute
