Look out for Bailey Coats the track single “FOMO”. The newest track comes off her upcoming EP. It could find a home on Apple’s New in Pop Playlist.

“One of the strangest things about life is the fact that we change and grow and learn; but it is also super scary when you realize that means YOU change. I had changed in all areas of my life at the time we wrote this song and it affected the person I was involved with. ‘FOMO’ is a song that came from a painful and doubtful place, but it is probably my favorite song to date because of its raw honesty.” shares Bailey Coats

Bailey wrote “FOMO” with producer of The Rascals’, Khris Riddick-Tynes (also known for his work with Ariana Grande, Kehlani, and Jessie Reyez), who also produced Bailey’s upcoming EP.

Watch out for Jamie Lee Harrison and the track Better Without You.

The track was produced by Paul Whalley ( James Arthur, Sigala, Cher Lloyd) and written by Jamie along with Whalley and Notting Hill Music songwriter Joe Killington (Avicii, Snakehips, Armand Van Helden).

“This track was another one born in lockdown just like ‘Say It Out Loud’. I was lucky enough to work with Joe Killington and Paul Whalley over zoom. It was one of those sessions that just worked and the song kind of wrote itself. I wanted a track paying homage to that special person that makes you happy and helps you escape all the things that are going wrong in life, but I also wanted a bit more of a summery vibe” shares Jamie.

The British singer has been supported by BBC Introducing, CelebMix, The Honey Pop and IGGY Magazine. He reached the Semi-Finals of Britain’s Got Talent in Series 11. He’ll headline Tyne Theatre and Opera House in Newcastle on August 22.

Soul singer Hatty Keane drops the track Let’s Fly. It could fit on Spotify’s Good Vibes and Late Night Vibes Playlist

“Welcome to my dream world: French wine, Spanish food (lots of it) & vintage cars in the Californian sunshine!” shares the London-based Keane.

She performed alongside Tinchy Stryder at Live Fest at the O2 in London. She also performed alongside Ed Sheeran and Wretch 32 at Proud O2. Keane supported JLS on their UK ‘Farewell’ tour. Lastly, she performed at Forbes Magazine’s 30 under 30 summit in Israel.

Social media has created an addiction of wanting to fit in. It’s terrifying to be the one who is the outcast.

The establishment culture shares the same latest trending news. They post the same thoughts. Type the same things. Share the same feelings. Last week it’s Britney. Now it’s Simone Biles. She’s flooded in LIKES, RETWEETS and FOLLOWERS from singers, actors, rappers, models, activists, athletes, and politicians. Nobody will leave this poor girl alone. It’s not like they care about her. No..No. The media and the establishment simpletons just want to ride on her coattails.

Birds of a feather flock together. Who wants to be a social outcast?

I get it. Fitting in is comfortable. It’s the path of least resistance. It’s more gratifying to open your unfollow app and view 2 new follows than 10 lost followers. Even if you’re lying to yourself, it’s still easier than social conflict.

But if you’re a NEW artist wanting to fit in, consider yourself invisible. We have fewer household names, and even less cult figures. Open your social media app and you’ve entered into a world of “sameness”. It’s easy to fit in, to blend in, and hide. Don’t tell me you’re going to embrace your individuality by posting a photo along with the latest trending hashtag.

The moment you open the app you’re looking for acceptance and validation. It’s very hard to create original art under those circumstances.

Michaelengo painted the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. But he wasn’t looking for approval. But the artist who overly obsesses with need of acceptance will never produce anything of the ages.

If you’re trying to write songs that appeal to the masses you’ll never be your true self because you’ll be always trying to shape yourself to the preferences of the people around you.

People never make history by fitting in. Ask yourself. How am I going to change entertainment? Or political discourse?

Social media created a monoculture monster. The platforms despise originality. If you’re an artist, take note. It’s time to face the monster and fight against the establishment culture.

Remember pop rock? I’m talking about acts like Lifehouse, The Fray, One Republic, and Imagine Dragons. They ruled pop radio. Today if they came out they would be labeled adult contemporary. The sounds of soft rock. Regardless, The Como Brothers are keeping it alive. They can be found gigging around Hard Rock Café and The Cutting Room in New York City. They’ve had songs featured on Keeping Up with the Kardashians, MTV’s The Real World, and The Oxygen Channel’s Best Ink.
