Liz Granier in the E L Gazette takes us to 'trilingual songs':
Once again, contemporary singers have banded together to create a song which slides from one language to another. K-pop band BTS did it back in May 2021 with Butter and now Malaysian R&B pair FML has taken the concept one step further by teaming up with high-profile Vietnamese rappers Seachain and Nhật Hoàng to record the trilingual track Call You Mine.Here's the song:

Bilingual Bops, Trilingual Tunes, Multilingual Music – UCWbLing
And from Babbel, a very well-considered piece looking at the theory and the artists:
