Wonderland says, “It was a real pleasure to work with Trippie. It is important to vibe with an artist before we collaborate. When he heard this song, it was very organic, and he jumped in the booth and we walked out feeling that we had something special. I felt like this song had a certain spirit and wanted people to feel like they were going on a journey with us….just like when watching the music video.”
With two U.S. Gold singles already under his belt, 18-year-old Trippie Redd has been described by XXL, Mass Appeal, Pigeons and Planes, hnhh and Noisey as “rap’s next rock star.” His debut mixtape, A Love Letter to You, launched a series of viral hits: “Love Scars” surpassed 16.1 million plays on SoundCloud and 11.9 million Spotify streams in addition to appearing on playlists such as RapCaviar, Most Necessary and Liit. “Romeo & Juliet” generated 6.6 million plays on SoundCloud and 3.5 million Spotify streams. Noisey observed, “While most of his contemporaries produce gritty, bass-driven bangers, Trippie toys with melody and adds a softer element that sets him apart from the pack.” The New York Times praised his “deep-haze vocals, ambling emotions, and slow-fade resolution” and FADER said that his “hook-making abilities and confessional writing…immediately stand out.” This article originally appeared in Astral Werks
