With the popular video-sharing app, TikTok having a huge impact on the music industry and becoming an exciting new way for fans to discover their new favourite artists, we too have found artists we love and have compiled a list of talented musicians we think you should check out.

We had a chat with award winning cinematographer, Darius Shu, about his upcoming short film, ‘I Am Norman’, his new song, ‘A Peaceful Killing’ and his plans for next year.

British artist, Yungblud released his second studio album, ‘Weird!’, today and it’s his most emotionally complex body of work to date. The 13 track album, recorded between London and Los Angeles includes ‘Acting Like That’ featuring Machine Gun Kelly (the only collaboration on the album), July release ‘Strawberry Lipstick’, and fourth single on the project, ‘Cotton Candy’.

Last Friday, American pop star Bea Miller released her brand new EP, ‘elated!’. This is the 21 year old’s most honest body of work to date and in just seven tracks, Bea touches on personal issues including politics, self sabotage, mental health and relationships.

blackbear’s fans have been spoiled rotten this month with so many new songs from their favourite artist and they have just been treated to even more, with part two of ‘everything means nothing’ finally dropping today.

With almost half a billion Spotify plays on 2018 single ‘3 Nights’ and collaborations with Halsey, Omar Apollo and Brockhampton’s Kevin Abstract, it’s fair to say Florida born musician Dominic Fike has had an eventful couple of years since he began sharing music online in 2017.

Since appearing on the fourth season of Last Chance U on Netflix in 2019, American football player Kailon Davis (KD) has stolen hearts across the globe. His contagious positive attitude and clear talent playing as a defensive linebacker saw him quickly become a favourite on the show, where he played for the Independence Pirates (ICC) in Kansas.

Multimedia company/rap collective, 88Rising are holding a massive global online concert tomorrow, and their line up is huge. Asia Rising Forever, a four hour long event showcasing some of the most exciting Asian talent from all over the world will not only include live performances from a wide range of artists but also consist of exclusive interviews and games.

So far during lockdown, we’ve seen Justin Bieber and his team notice a fan’s virtual concert project, Post Malone perform a Nirvana tribute in a flowery dress and Travis Scott play a gig on Fortnite, but the fun doesn’t stop there with Block By Blockwest taking place on Minecraft later today.

The festival, presented by Courier Club, will be held on the best selling videogame of all time, and is probably the most accessible yet, as Minecraft can be played on anything with a screen.

With concerts and festivals across the globe being cancelled, one fan decided enough is enough. Indonesian Bieber fan, Yesika, (also known as @Unaesthetyc on Twitter) is hosting a virtual concert for Justin Bieber fans All Around The World (if you know, you know). 

The idea immediately gathered a lot of attention and within less than a day, thousands of free tickets had been sold. The hashtag #BieberVirtualConcert began trending and fans posted screenshots of their tickets, which at one point had sold out.

Australian band, Five Seconds Of Summer (5SOS), have fallen victim to a clerical error causing them to chart at number two on the Billboard 200, with the release of 12 track studio album, ‘CALM’.

Through no fault of their own, ten thousand copies of CALM were sent out before their intended release, meaning the sales were not counted as part of their debut week numbers. Losing to The Weeknd’s ‘After Hours’ by less than 3000 units rightfully angered fans, who have worked hard to make up for lost numbers and put in efforts to prevent leaks from being accessible.

​

Post Malone has released his third album, Hollywood’s Bleeding after over a year of anticipation. The 24 year old’s 17 track album follows from the success of four previously released singles - Wow, Sunflower with Swae Lee, Goodbyes featuring Young Thug and newest single, Circles. The four tracks which were released ahead of the album drop have racked up so many streams and sales that he’s already on track for the highest streaming album of 2019

Hollywood's Bleeding is available to stream on all major platforms!
