Arriving just in time for the warmer months, the track flaunts a breezy blend of pop & R&B that finds AJ entering a vibrant new era as an artist. Co-written by AJ himself alongside Dan Gleyzer, Matt Bubel, Chelsea Balan and Grant Landis, “Spring Break” is available now via all digital streaming platforms HERE. 

“I had a blast making Spring Break,” said AJ. “I haven’t really made a song like this before and I’m excited for people to hear a new side to me. I’ve always liked challenging myself and making different kinds of music, so it was nice to make something so carefree and fun. It’s really just inspired by the idea that Spring Break is a frame of mind. If you’re not on spring break, listening to this song will take you right there.”

AJ has also released a colorful accompanying music video for the song today, directed by Psycho Films’ Joe Weil (Kendrick Lamar, A$AP Ferg, Electric Guest). Filmed across multiple locations in Los Angeles, the piece perfectly captures the spirit of spring break; when tropical days seamlessly turn into euphoric nights. Watch the video now here.

As he readies his forthcoming debut album, AJ continues to prove himself as one of 2020’s breakout artists. Across the past year, the singer-songwriter has garnered acclaim from the likes of Billboard, DuJour, Idolator and more, and has received recognition as both an MTV PUSHartist and a 2019 Vevo LIFT artist. Impressively, he’s already ranked among the Top 500 artists on Spotify and is closing in on 8 million monthly listeners.

AJ released his Slow Dance EP via Epic Records in August 2019, which features the smash-hit title track featuring Ava Max. Following performances at the 2019 VMAs as well as on The Today Show and Live With Kelly and Ryan, the song maintained a position on the Top 40 Pop Radio charts for months. To close out the year, AJ continued to showcase his range with a steady stream of diverse tracks including the smooth, stripped back “Like Strangers Do,” the energetic pop anthem “Say It Again”, and the R&B-tinged “Unstoppable”.

PERFORMS “2X2” ON COLORS

CRITICAL ACCLAIM FOLLOWS RELEASE OF DEBUT EP, 95

“BEAM is confident and proficient in everything he’s making, and backed by his own top tier production, he doesn’t miss. Expect that to continue in 2020.” – Pigeons and Planes

“On his debut project, 95, rapper-producer BEAM effectively hops around the globe, borrowing from dancehall, trap, lo-fi and boom-bap.” – NPR

(March 5, 2020 – New York, NY) – Today, GRAMMY® Award-winning rapper, singer, songwriter and producer BEAM unveils the official music video for his acclaimed track “UNDA ARMOR.” Premiered earlier today via The FADER, the video is directed by PDL. Watch it HERE.

About the song, BEAM says, “’UNDA ARMOR’ is about the Holy Spirit to me, but it can mean anything to anyone who listens to the song. It can be what you feel literally protects you when you walk outside of your house. Every day is a battlefield.”

The black-and-white clip opens on BEAM trying to hock mixtapes to passersby to no avail. After encountering a light in the sky, he dons a black vest, hops on his bike, and takes to the streets as a throng of followers rush behind him. With glassy eyes and a raven flying above, the tripped-out video reflects his shadowy sonic spirit. Meanwhile, he captivates with the hook, “I had the UNDA ARMOR vest to protect myself, still got the city on my back to protect myself.”

Of the video, he explains to The FADER that it is about “transitioning from a point in my life where I was grinding and hustling, from rock bottom, to a place where I want to be. At the same time, that comes with the people who treated me like shit and doubted me during that experience. Now I have people hitting me, calling me, DMing me saying how they believe in me. They only see the music and the progress, but they still don’t really believe in me. The video is painting a vivid picture of that.”

“UNDA ARMOR,” which is produced by ChaseTheMoney, can be found on his critically lauded debut EP, 95. Get it HERE via Epic Records.

Released at the end of 2019, 95 cements BEAM as a new kind of artist to be reckoned with. Seamlessly mixing Dancehall with Hip-Hop, Trap, Electronics and Pop, the project showcases a masterful songwriter and producer who takes the idea of genre, obliterates it and builds something new. He effortlessly switches between Jamaican Patois and English, and rapping and singing, with an intoxicatingly robust and adaptable voice. The result is jarring-yet-melodic, a direct-yet-diverse cohesion of colors and textures. Executive produced by BEAM and Cardo[Drake, Travis Scott] with additional production contributions from Frank Dukes, ChaseTheMoney, Al Cres and Blake$ale, the EP has brought the artist an onslaught of buzz.

NPR touted him among their “Favorite Discoveries of 2019” for All Songs Considered’s Heat Check, commending his “synth-bridging dancehall.” Pigeons & Planes named him one of 2020’s biggest Artists to Watch, describing 95 as “a sound that is decidedly modern and subtly forward-thinking, and designed to move bodies.” EP highlight “Mad Gaal” received major love from Soulection while LA Weekly spotlighted “UNDA ARMOR” and his genre-bending aesthetic, exclaiming that he is “bridging multiple sounds, creating his own lane of sonically-appealing hip-hop and R&B.”  Highsnobiety perhaps put it best,“BEAM’s light shines bright.” Additionally, he appeared on COLORS for a scorching tour de force performance of the track “2X2.”  View it HERE.

Recently, he collaborated with Major Lazer, Anitta and MC Lan on the track “Rave De Favela.” Next, he graces a stacked bill headlined by A$AP Rocky, Travis Scott, and Post Malone at Rolling Loud in Miami, FL on May 8-10.

BEAM’s light will only grow in 2020. Get ready for more soon.

ABOUT BEAM:

BEAM stands for “Be Everything And More.” The artist most certainly lives up to the promise of his moniker. As the son of Reggae and Dancehall legend Papa San, music has been in his blood since birth. After immigrating from Kingston, Jamaica to Miami, FL as a young child, he grew up in the studio. Naturally, he became a songwriting and beatsmith maverick, placing his first production credits as a teenager.  BEAM has done production and songwriting work for everyone from 2 Chainz and Yo Gotti to Lecrae, whose  2012 album Gravity won the 2013 GRAMMY Award® for Best Gospel Album. Most recently, he worked on 21 Savage’s 2018 album I Was > I Am on tracks like “ball w/o you” and “good day.” As he a quietly amassed an arsenal of solo tracks, he lent his voice to “Mumbai Power” from Skrillex’s 2019 Show Tracks. Not to mention, he earned a cosign from Diplo and hit the studio with the likes of Major Lazer, Metro Boomin,and South Side, amongst others. 

Now, his debut EP, 95, stands out as more than just music; it’s a genre-busting global experience. He’s everything and more.

PTSD TOUR UNDERWAY NOW KICKING OFF LAST NIGHT IN NYC

(February 28, 2020 – Los Angeles, CA) – Serving up a definitive statement, rising red-hot Chicago rapper G Herbo unleashes his anxiously awaited new album, PTSD, today. Upon going live, it claimed a spot in the Top 2 of iTunes Top Hip-Hop/Rap Albums Chart and the Top 5 of the Overall Top Albums Chart.

Get it HERE via Machine Entertainment Group/Orchard/Epic Records.

Herbo heralded the album with a pair of bold and brash bangers befitting of his reputation as a major power player in the Chicago rap music scene. “In This Bitch” scored over 2 million streams worldwide and garneredthe endorsement of Brooklyn Vegan and HipHopDX to name a few. Last week, he popped off on the slick and smooth anthem “Shooter” [feat. Jacquees]. In under seven days, it gathered 687K streams worldwide asHotNewHipHop dubbed it, “an R&B-rap track for the ladies.”

On the artwork for PTSD, he re-stitches a bullet-riddled American flag with stars representative of his loved ones who have passed away.” My statement is about PTSD and what everybody goes through in the hood you don’t hear about “says G Herbo. Even the toughest among us face it. This is my story.”

As a whole, PTSD tours the darkest corners of a psyche damaged by the everlasting cycle of inner city violence as witnessed firsthand by Herbo. On the gruff and gritty “Intro,” he spits with purpose, passion, and power. From the jump, he announces, “I do it for the have-s and have-nots,” as nineties production glistens. The intensity only ramps up from there on “Glass In The Face” [feat. A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie]. A centerpiece of the record, “PTSD” [feat. the Juice WRLD, Chance the Rapper, Lil Uzi Vert] unfolds as an emotionally charged confession, bringing together three of Chicago’s most influential voices—the late Juice WRLD, Chance, and Herbo—and elusive Philadelphia multiplatinum star Lil Uzi Vert. It paints a picture of urban decay and highlights a pervasive theme with the declaration, “Don’t stand too close to me, I got PTSD.” Meanwhile, soul samples bleed into a crossfire between Herbo and 21 Savage on “By Any Means.” Everything culminates on“Intuition” [feat. 2PRETTY & Sonta]. It offers a peek at the light at the end of the tunnel with heavenly vocals and a skittering beat and one final lyrical catharsis.

Full tracklisting below.

Last night, he launched the PTSD Tour in Brooklyn at Brooklyn Steel. It canvases the entire country before concluding at House of Blues in Cleveland, OH on April 7. Full itinerary below!

Herbo says it all on PTSD and possesses the power to make a major impact.

Quietly putting up over 1 billion streams and attracting widespread critical acclaim, G Herbo emerged as one of the Windy City’s most important presences and a voice for hip-hop at large. He hailed from the notorious Chicago neighborhood of “Terror Town” and went on to drop one explosive project after another beginning with Ballin Like I’m Kobe in 2016. In the aftermath, he lifted himself up to the top of the charts with Humble Beast, which vaulted into the Top 25 of the Billboard Top 200 in 2017. He ascended to unparalleled critical peaks on 2018’s Swervo with Southside. It clinched #15 on the Top 200 and bowed in the Top 10 on the Top Rap Albums Chart and Top 10 on the Top R&B Hip-Hop Albums Chart. Receiving praise from HotNewHipHop, HipHopDX, DJ Booth, The Four Oh Five, and more, Pitchfork proclaimed Swervo among “The Best Rap Albums of 2018” and asserted, “Through it all, G Herbo never abandons the puns and hater-dismantling bars that have helped him become one of the Windy City’s very best.” Boasting collaborations with Gunna “Trained To Kill (Big Body Whips)” and the late legend Juice WRLD “Never Scared,” 2019’s Still Swervin maintained his momentum followed by Sessions at the end of the year.

As the remix clocked over 6 million streams and landed him on the cover of Spotify’s coveted “Pop Rising” playlist, Billboard claimed, “John K’s breakout ode to fate, ‘if we never met,’ already has our hearts melting with lyrics pondering what life would be like if he never met his soulmate. Now, the romantic tune has a sweet, feminine twist thanks to Kelsea Ballerini.” He also spoke to HollywoodLifein-depth about the original and the collaboration. 

Additionally, he just dropped a remix of “if we never met” by Sigala. Within less than a week, it put up 528K Spotify streams and counting. Not to mention, he currently averages over 3.3 million monthly listeners on Spotify.

Right now, John K is hard at work on his debut album, due out soon.

“NICE TO MEET YA”

FEATURING NICKI MINAJ

JOINING MAROON 5 ON TOUR IN MAY 2020

FIND FULL DATES AND BUY TICKETS HERE!

(January 31, 2020 – Los Angeles, CA) – The time has come.

GRAMMY® Award-winning singer, songwriter, and producer Meghan Trainor drops her third album, Treat Myself [Epic Records], today, and Dr. Phil wants everyone to TREAT THEMSELVES and listen to it!!!

Building on their friendship and Meghan’s lifelong obsession with him, she finally “is in love with herself” says Dr. Phil. 

He promises, “The lyrics are about being a strong person filled with positivity…just like I taught her on the TV.”

Before encouraging everyone to “Treat yourself to Treat Myself,” Meghan actually gets Dr. Phil to say the words “funky” and “bopping” to his own astonishment—and that of anyone who’s ever watched him.

What better way to introduce Treat Myself. 

Get the album HERE. 

Meghan preceded the record’s arrival with a string of fan favorites. The boisterous and bold platinum single “No Excuses” clocked over 106 million Spotify streams to date, and at the end of 2019 she performed the soaring album opener “Wave” [feat. Mike Sabath] on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and The Voice. Earlier this month, she unveiled “Blink” to critical acclaim with Rolling Stonedubbing it, “a motivational anthem.” Meanwhile, Idolator predicted Treat Myself as “shaping up to be well worth the years-long wait. I feel comfortable saying that based on the quality of bops like ‘Blink’.”

The brand new single “Nice To Meet Ya” [feat. Nicki Minaj] showcases another side of the superstar. Over throwback nineties R&B production, she slides from slick verses towards a whispered refrain before the iconic Queen, Nicki Minaj, goes wild on the beat with fierce and fiery rhymes.  Watch the official video HERE, inspired by the 80’s Cult Classic Movie, Working Girl.  Elsewhere on the album, she welcomes the freshly reunited Pussycat Dolls to guest on the cheeky “Genetics,” which playfully pokes fun at perceived plastic perfection. “Babygirl” represents an emotional high point as Meghan locks into a heavenly harmony with a choir on a resounding reminder to “Love Yourself” before an eighties-style dance drop. Meanwhile, she joins forces with rising pop star AJ Mitchell on the sassy and spunky “After You.” Everything culminates on the finale “Have You Now.” Its skittering synths and danceable claps build towards a tender plea, “Don’t let me down, stay with me for life.”

Check out the full tracklisting below.

Speaking to her worldwide influence, Meghan recently joined The Voice UK as a judge for this season, adding to a growing list of film and television credits and enchanting audiences yet again.

(January 31, 2020 – New York, NY) – Today, singer-songwriter Madison Beer unveils “Good In Goodbye,” the highly anticipated debut single off her forthcoming full-length album, on license from First Access Entertainment to be released on Epic Records later this year. The track, co-written and co-produced by Beer, hits streaming services today, with the accompanying visual premiering on YouTube Music/VEVO. Check out the single HERE.

In the captivating video, Beer confronts her toughest adversary—herself—in an immersive video game-style landscape armed with colorful firepower, ninja stars, and a whole lot of attitude. Beer, an embodiment of the “Girl Boss” generation, directed the video herself. It’s the ultimate breakup anthem for the ASMR age. You can watch the video HERE.

Of the track and forthcoming album, Beer says: “It feels so good to be releasing the first single from my debut album! Touching on a theme that resonates throughout the album, ‘Good In Goodbye,’ is predominately a break up song. It’s about how cutting ties with a toxic person, no matter how tough it can feel at the time, is sometimes the only way forward and you should always find the ‘good’ in ‘goodbye.’ It also touches on the duality of condemnation and self-reflection you often go through at the end of a relationship – a concept which is brought to life in the video where I delve deep into my inner demons, playing myself and my evil twin.”

Prior to signing with Epic Records late last year, Madison achieved unprecedented success as an independent artist with her partner First Access Entertainment. Her debut EP As She Pleases boasts over 700 million streams globally and made her the first independent female solo artist to break into the Top 20 radio charts, after having debuted in the Top 5 on iTunesin 18 countries and in the Top 10 in 42 countries worldwide.

FEATURING BURNA BOY & KOFFEE

“…J Hus is arguably the UK’s premier rapper. His style, perfected with producer JAE5, blends Afropop, Dancehall, and Grime, and has become one of the definitive sounds of the UK.” – Pitchfork

LONDON, UK – JANARUY 24, 2020 – Today, J Hus—the darling of UK Rap and the Afro-fusion pioneer—has finally gifted fans with his highly anticipated sophomore album, Big Conspiracy, out now. With features from Burna Boy and Koffee, Big Conspiracy is executive produced by JAE5, reuniting the electric duo once again to create magic. The combination ofJAE5’s classic production style along with J Hus’ trademark rap flair and unmatched lyricism create what is set to undoubtedly be one of the most revered albums of the year.

Get it at all digital partners HERE!

In usual J Hus fashion, Big Conspiracy boasts an exuberant blend of Dancehall, Afrobeat, Rap, R&B and even Drill. It is an emotional rollercoaster ride, exploring the inner thoughts and feelings of the East Londoner. The record establishes him as a cross-territory leader: A king of the underdogs, who, across fourteen songs, dispenses with a reflective, lyrically sharp mission brief on himself, his state of mind and his navigational map for prevailing in a game of rigged odds.

The album brings together some of the most significant names in global music with masterful, career-best production from close collaborators JAE5, Levi Lennox, and iO, plus with the addition of TobiShyBoy, Nana Rogues, Skribz Riley and more.

The first two singles from the album, “Must Be” (his first Top 5 U.K. hit) and street track “No Denying” have both quickly become fan favorites and served as tasters for what was to follow. ‘Big Conspiracy’ picks up where 2017’s Common Sense (the Mercury, BRIT, and BET Award nominated debut album) left off. The classic, cheeky and playful persona of the Hussla returns fusing a plethora of African tones and Jamaican patterns across the album. Vibrant tracks such as “Cucumber” and the Burna Boy-assisted, Jae5, Nana Rogues and Skribz Riley-produced track “Play Play” are heat wave anthems set to take over every single BBQ and party this summer, with Hus reminiscing on old crushes and current link-ups and slick-talking like only he can.

With regard to guest features, joining Burna Boy, Jamaica’s current queen Koffee holds the verses of “Repeat” aloft.  Newcomer Iceé tgm leads the album, providing the chorus and backing vocals on the album’s first two tracks.

“Reckless” is arguably the album’s most anticipated moment – having been teased to fans on socials for just over a year now. On the track, Hus confidently takes on the haters and showcases his supreme lyrical ability. Notably, on Big Conspiracy, we see a more aware and conscious J Hus. After a well-documented fall from grace that included a stint in prison in early 2019, Hus studied up and grew up even more. As he elaborated to Wonderland in their 2019 cover story, “you’re gonna hear a more grown up Hus” on Big Conspiracy. “You’re gonna hear music with more meaning.”

The track “Love Peace & Prosperity” hints at Hus’ current world view. Closing track “Deeper Than Rap”, meanwhile, is an analysis of his life up to this point. A lyrical treatise on what he stands for, what he represents, it’s Hus at his most candid and politically poignant. It is to this album what “Spirit” was to the last and the end credits to the thirteen songs that have come before. 

Common Sense was Hus’ introduction, defining a sound – Big Conspiracy defines the mission. After securing the charts around the globe, the radio and the critics, it is the document of a singular artist expressing multitudes. With a greater emphasis on the word than ever before, this is a record where the music and the message do all of the talking. The Fisherman might be nowhere to be seen, but he’s back, hustling for life’s top spot.

PRAISE FOR 2017’S COMMON SENSE

“The most promising musical exchanges of the last couple of years have been among Africa, Europe and North America, and no album made that clearer than [Common Sense].” – The New York Times, Best albums of 2017

“Every few years, the exuberance of an artist just barely arriving at their adult years brightens the rap realm….The 21-year-old artist did us all a favor by making an album that joined much of the most exciting music coming out of the African diaspora—dancehall, afrobeats, hip-hop, and grime—in a way so fluid that it feels like he needs a new genre exclusively credited to him.” – Vice/Noisey, Best albums of 2017

“As the lead single of his Mercury Prize-nominated debut album Common Sense, [“Did You See”] soundtracked his biggest moment yet, and despite its understated energy, will forever sound triumphant.” – The FADER, 101 Best songs of 2017

“…so consistently excellent that it’s hard to pick a best song.“ – Pigeons and Planes, Best albums of 2017

“The album showed us a more thoughtful side to the rapper and took him, without having to compromise, into the mainstream arena. ” – Complex, Best albums of 2017

“…the year’s best British debut.” – Highsnobiety, Best albums of 2017

SET TO SUPPORT EDEN ON NO FUTURE NORTH AMERICANTOUR IN APRIL

What the press is saying about Rence…

“The song smoothly marries multiple styles, from slick, bass-driven funk to synth-pop…it all pays off, big time.” – PAPER (on “Expensive” ft. Noah Cyrus)

“Rence is one of the breakout stars of 2019” – IDOLATOR

“Rence experiments with his sound on FALL 2019. He considers himself genre-less, hopping between pop, electro, hip-hop, and indie across all six tracks. It’s a bold decision for a new artist, but one that pays off, as it allows Rence to be his most true self. ” – NYLON

“One of the best new artists for December 2019” – Pigeons & Planes

(January 24, 2020 – Los Angeles, CA) – Putting up nearly 15 million streams in the past year alone and attracting glowing critical endorsements, buzzing genre disruptor Rence shares a brand new single and music video entitled “hate u btw” today.

Get it HERE via Epic Records.

On the track, he picks up a guitar and plucks out a prodding riff buoyed by glitchy beats and keys. He quietly strums out chords before crooning the unshakable and undeniable chant, “She said I hate you by the way…with a smile on her face.”

The self-directed and edited music video reflects the sardonically slick sentiment of this breakup send-off. Accompanied by a keyboardist under a gray sky, Rence plays a purple Telecaster on a seaside dock. The clip shifts to him performing on top of a boathouse as frenetic editing moves with the bounce.

Watch it HERE.

Rence continues to receive praise from top tastemakers as well. Pigeons & Planes named him among the “Best New Artists of the Month (December)” and wrote, “Rence’s music isn’t easy to classify, but it lives somewhere in the pop world, at least in terms of accessibility.” Additionally, The FADER touted the music video for the new version of “I Know” [feat. RIZ LA VIE].

Next up, the rising talent hits the road on EDEN’s No Future North American Tour as a special guest alongside keshi. It kicks off April 23 at House of Blues in Dallas, TX, rolls through major markets throughout the South, Midwest, and East Coast, and wraps up at Royal Oak Music Theatre in Royal Oak, MI on May 20. Check out the final itinerary below.

Get ready for a lot more from Rence very soon! 

ABOUT RENCE

Right out of the gate, Rence’s 2019 single “Expensive” [feat. Noah Cyrus] made waves and turned heads. The song has over 3.5 million global streams, while the music video has amassed over 675K YouTube/VEVO views. Of the latter, Billboard wrote, “Though the beat is quite dynamic, with synths and a toe-tapping bass line, the clip takes a darker turn, following closely with the lyrical meaning.” He also recently spoke at length on this current chapter and more to come with Substream Magazine in addition to sitting down with ONS, The Knockturnal, and ECHO around his sold out live debut at Baby’s Alright in New York. 

Sharing real life snapshots in song, Rence magnifies his personal perspective through a genre-less palette, bordering pop, alternative, electro, indie and hip-hop all at once, yet never dipping into one for too long. The Los Angeles-based artist, who was born in D.C., spent his formative teen years in Seattle and then moved to New York to attend NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts, first allowed listeners to hear this irresistible inner monologue on his breakthrough independent project, Pink. The project’s lead single “Baby Blue” racked up over 4 million Spotify streams as his total tally approached 8 million. Along the way, peers such as Chelsea Cutler and FLETCHER lent support as critical acclaim came from Hilly Dilly, Lyrical Lemonade, Ones To Watch, Elevator Magazine, i-D, Paper  and more. Tastemaker Zane Lowe handpicked “Ways To Go” as his “World Record” on Apple Music’s Beats 1.

Now, he transforms pop on his own terms.
