MUST LISTEN 141
Every week, we’ll be bringing you Must Listen: a series that's a compilation of rising artists along with songs that must be added to your everyday playlist. This week’s playlist consists of emerging acts like ABBIANA, Morgan Julianna, Rsieh Raxan, and many more.
ABBIANA
Multi-hyphenate artist ABBIANA releases her debut project EXISTENTIAL FEVER, a retrospective deep dive into the emotions and sacrifices it truly takes to chase a dream. Contestant 410 makes it look effortless, pairing hypnotic production, impeccable vocals, and skits woven throughout the tracklist to create a velvety, addictive listen. It’s a debut that proves every second of anticipation was worth it.
Morgan Julianna
Rising star Morgan Julianna returns with her latest single, “Rendezvous.” The track is a shimmering pop gem—nostalgic snares, silky vocals, and striking visuals that rival today’s pop titans. We see the vision, and we’re rooting for Morgan to stay.
Rsieh Raxan
Blending late-2000s and early-2010s nostalgia with a sleek modern edge, rising talent Rsieh Raxan delivers “Ping Pong,” a kinetic, hook-driven single that solidifies his momentum. The track mirrors the emotional back-and-forth of a relationship stretched thin by sacrifice.
Solo B
UK rising star Solo B drops his latest EP, Where The Party At. The project is laced with a sweet seduction, breathy vocals, playful innuendos, and tropical drum patterns that pull you into a dark lounge, dancing with someone you shouldn’t be. It’s another step in shaping his “NOVASOUND,” a soulful, evolving fusion that keeps Solo B firmly outside the box.
Self-Proclaimed Narcissist
Earlier this year, an enigmatic voice surfaced on TikTok—no face, no backstory, just a sound so magnetic it sparked rumors of secret drops from Frank Ocean or Daniel Caesar. Instead, it introduced Self-Proclaimed Narcissist, a faceless artist whose music speaks louder than any image ever could. Now, he returns with “Sweetest Thing,” a fan-demanded single that expands his signature blend of intimacy and intrigue. Warm, emotive guitar production sets the stage for a track steeped in longing, devotion, and quiet obsession—another haunting, precise reveal from an artist who unveils his world slowly.
Clovo
Australian electronic artist Clovo returns with a brand-new, seductive club anthem about reclaiming your self-worth after leaving a toxic relationship. With sleek electronic production and dangerously alluring vocals, the track is made for anybody who’s ever walked away from a loser and looked hotter doing it.
Infinite Coles
Fresh off a run of genre-blending singles that propelled him to viral recognition, Infinite Coles unveils his debut album, SweetFace Killah. Drawing from ballroom, afro-house, hip-hop, and R&B, the project feels far more seasoned than a typical debut. Across 12 tracks, Infinite’s innate vocal gifts and fearless approach to storytelling shine as he explores personal battles growing up queer within a rap dynasty and his journey toward a self that’s powerful, joyous, and unapologetically free.
fakemink & Fimiguerrero
One of the year’s best breakthrough artists makes a return with his latest single, “Black Jeep,” co-produced by the legendary Skrillex and featuring fellow UK underground star, Fimiguerrero. The track is a ball of adrenaline fused with punk and electronic elements, complete with a signature catchy hook from Mink and raw, fiery bars from Fimiguerrero. This drop is only a preview for what’s to come as the Essex rapper gears up to release his highly teased and anticipated next album, Terrified.
