King Princess’ Steely Dan “Dirty Work” Cover


The Steely Dan classic “Dirty Work” is all about toxic relationships, and so it pairs like a fine wine with Season 3 of Max’s Hacks, thanks to a new cover by King Princess Consequence is premiering exclusively.

The pop musician’s take on “Dirty Work” appears at the end of Season 3 Episode 2, “Better Late,” and originated from King Princess’ friendship with series star Hannah Einbinder. In a statement, King Princess revealed: “Hacks is hilarious and so is my good bud, Hannah Einbinder. She asked me to sing ‘Dirty Work’ and it was a no brainer. Everyone should watch this show, it’s tremendously iconic.”

In the new season of Hacks, comedy icon Deborah Vance (Jean Smart) is on the prowl for a new challenge after her triumphant stand-up special a year ago, while Ava (Einbinder), the confidante Deborah fired, forges her own path. The series, created by Paul W. Downs, Lucia Aniello, and Jen Statsky, has been a critical and awards favorite since its premiere in 2021, racking up 32 Emmy nominations and six wins for its first two seasons.

Next up, King Princess is set to make her acting debut in Season 2 of Nine Perfect Strangers (also starring Nicole Kidman, Christine Baranski, Dolly De Leon, Murray Bartlett, and Annie Murphy) while working on her third studio album. Check out our interview with the artist about her most recent LP, Hold On Baby.

Hacks Season 3 premieres May 2nd on Max with two new episodes. The rest of the season will drop on subsequent Thursdays. Revisit the trailer here.
