Look out for ZINN which is the moniker for Monique. She just released the fourth track Itch which completes her EP. She uses Cardi B’s manicurist – but she sounds nothing like the NJ rapper. Citing Bebe Rexha, Halsey, and Jessie Reyez as influences – her latest track is emotional. ZINN tells Kings, “I want people to rise above the differences. Understand the fact we are different people and have different opinions yet we are in the same place”. She continues, “We have so much energy we put into the world and we waste it on anger”.

With a bunch of late summer releases it’s easy to over look emerging artists that lack big promo budgets. With that, look out for 20-year-old singer-songwriter Aaron Carpenter. The Louisiana native released a new single Next via Capitol Records. He wrote the song with The Roommates (Jon Bellion) and Mozella (Miley Cyrus, Jonas Brothers, One Direction). His first release Attitude has clocked over a million Spotify streams and BBC Radio 1 named it as one of the April’s Best New Pop tracks. Managed by Lighthouse Management + Media, Aaron got a boost through instagram where he has a million followers – probably a huge factor in his signing with Capitol. In interview with Paper, Carpenter says, “I didn’t take it seriously until I was about 15, 16. I love entertaining people in any way possible, and I have an insane passion with music. I didn’t know how to go about doing it—I could play instruments and I could sing, but I didn’t know how to go about it. My platform came along and it’s like, “Oh, might as well start doing what I like instead of just posting photos of myself online.” It’s a blessing.”
