Ava Della Pietra’s new single “2 can play” tells a story about someone deciding to push back after being emotionally misled. The lyrics explore themes of betrayal, blurred boundaries, and emotional distance, using a clear structure to move from initial hurt to quiet retaliation. The song reflects on the shift from vulnerability to control, as the narrator responds in kind to someone who played games with their trust.

“2 can play” is a mid-tempo track with a haunting tone. The production starts sparse and gradually adds tension through layered vocals, ambient textures, and rhythmic shifts that follow the arc of the lyrics. Echoes and harmonies add atmosphere without distracting from the vocal delivery. Each section builds on the last, moving the story forward while maintaining a steady emotional pace.

Ava began writing music at age ten and currently studies at the Harvard-Berklee dual program. Much of her early songwriting was developed during the pandemic while isolating with her family on Long Island. She has now written more than 150 original songs and has earned over 26 million global streams. Her work often centers on personal storytelling, relationships, and emotional clarity.

“2 can play” fits into the landscape of contemporary pop and would sit comfortably on Spotify playlists like Pop Rising, Teen Beats, Fresh Finds Pop, Young & Free, Breakup Songs, Women of Pop, and Pop Sauce. Ava shares a fan base with artists like Tate McRae, Olivia Rodrigo, Sabrina Carpenter, Lauren Spencer Smith, Alexander Stewart, Mimi Webb, and Benson Boone—performers known for combining melody-driven production with personal, introspective lyrics.

Blending lo-fi intimacy with soulful melodies and a hint of pop-punk nostalgia, Korean-American artist hyoon returns with “Stupid For You”, a moody, confessional single about the addictive draw of someone you can’t let go — even when you should.

Using cigarette addiction as a metaphor for toxic love, the track floats on soft guitar, minimalistic beats, and layered vocals that build into an emotional crescendo.

“It’s about knowing you should walk away… but not being able to. That push-pull of emotional addiction,” says hyoon.

The single follows hyoon’s 2024 debut EP Journal Entries and deepens his signature sound — a fusion of bedroom pop, soul, and lo-fi indie. Inspired by artists like Rex Orange County, Keshi, and Frank Ocean, hyoon crafts music that feels both familiar and raw. With its warm textures and emotional honesty, “Stupid For You” would sit perfectly on playlists like sad hour, Alternative R&B, Fresh Finds R&B, bedroom pop, Late Night Vibes, and R&B Chill — the kind of tracks that soundtrack quiet breakdowns and blurry 2 a.m. drives.

With a sound that bridges emotional vulnerability and hazy production, hyoon would be a natural fit on tour alongside artists like Keshi, Joji, RINI, d4vd, dhruv, and Grentperez — artists who similarly blur the lines between genres and moods.

Philadelphia-born, LA-based singer Almondmilkhunni just released her new single “New Jerzey”, a hazy blend of indie electronic and acoustic vibes. The track tells the story of a tough, unpredictable Jersey girl who’s emotionally closed off—but still irresistible. It’s equal parts dreamy and dangerous.

Known for her hyperpop-meets-R&B sound, Almondmilkhunni’s warm vocals and honest lyrics make her a perfect fit for playlists like Fresh Finds, ALT R&B, sad hour, Indie Pop & Chill, and Late Night Vibes.

With past collabs including Yung Gravy, Trevor Daniel, and Yellow Claw, she’d fit right in on tour with artists like Tinashe, RAYE, FLETCHER, or Omar Apollo.

Bobby Bodega makes his return with “Gravity”, a raw and personal single that dives into cycles of struggle, survival, and truth. Raised near 1520 Sedgwick Avenue—the birthplace of hip hop—Bobby brings history, experience, and sharp lyricism into every line. “Gravity,” his first solo release since 2021’s Chariots of Fire, explores heavy themes with bars like “Give them doors but no keys” and “AI taking over streams,” speaking directly to systemic challenges, tech shifts, and street reality.

Bobby has previously opened for Ab-Soul, Pusha T, and Luke James, earning performance chops and credibility within the culture. His music blends Bronx storytelling with a focus on pushing hip hop forward without losing its roots.

“Gravity” fits into Spotify playlists like Alternative Hip-Hop, Most Necessary, Bars, Fresh Finds Hip-Hop, and No Cap. He would be a strong match on tour with artists like Mick Jenkins, Kota the Friend, Saba, Joey Bada$$, and IDK—lyric-driven performers who blend reflection with grit.

Reuben Medlin shares his new album, It’s A Long Walk Home Pt. 2, written during his recovery from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Born in Wiltshire, UK, Reuben was forced to step back from an active lifestyle after his diagnosis, spending nearly two years housebound. During that time, he turned to songwriting and production as a daily outlet. The new project reflects that process of rebuilding. The lead single, “Live My Life Happy”, is a moment of clarity in a body of work shaped by struggle and change. Reuben’s previous songs have landed on Spotify playlists like New Music Friday UK, New Pop UK, Fresh Finds, Fresh Finds Indie, and Barefoot in the Park. With over 800,000 streams and 1.4 million likes on TikTok, he’s gained attention from BBC Introducing and continues to grow his audience. His honest, self-produced sound would make him a strong touring match with artists like Alec Benjamin, Jeremy Zucker, Maisie Peters, Noah Kahan, and Holly Humberstone.
