	Phi Life Cypher was featured on an earlier version of "[[Clint Eastwood (song)\|Clint Eastwood]]" by [[Gorillaz]], however [[Damon Albarn]] and [[Dan the Automator]] decided to use [[Del the Funky Homosapien]] instead. This version was later officially released on ''[[G-Sides]]'', a compilation of B-sides which was released in Japan and quickly followed with international releases in early 2002. Phi Life Cypher did however perform the track with Gorillaz at the [[~~2010~~ Brit Awards]], featuring the band in 3D animation, weaving in and out of each other on four large screens along with their rap accompaniment.
