Indonesian rising rapper, singer, and producer Warren Hue releases his new powerful single ‘W (with yvngxchris)’
The track features rising Virginia rapper yvngxchris and sees the two emerging stars trading verses about being on the come up.
The release of “W” coincides with Warren’s latest PARTY IN WEST event held yesterday, March 24th that saw appearances from special guests yvngxchris and AG Club. The name is an ode to Hue’s single “WEST” released last fall. This is the second of Hue’s PARTY IN WEST events – the first party took place on February 17th at Catch One LA and saw a sold-out crowd of 500 fans.
Warren debuted his previous single “RUNAWAY W ME,” an alternative hip-hop track featuring an infectious hook, in front of 30,000 fans at the finale of the 2021 Head In The Clouds Festival in Pasadena, California. This followed the release of his single “WEST,” a mesmerizing track with a reel-to-reel tape loop that feels equal parts nostalgic and triumphant.
In less than a year, Warren Hue has grown from hometown hero to international sensation. Hue emerged in early 2021 with his debut release with the pioneering Asian music collective 88rising, “omomo punk.” Upon release the track was playlisted on Spotify’s “New Music Friday” in 13 countries including the US, Indonesia, and more.
In May, Hue released “Too Many Tears,” the lead single from collaboration album Head in the Clouds that features 88rising artists and more. The release was accompanied by the launch of TOOMANYTEARS.AI, where 88rising and Microsoft partnered to develop an audio-visual experience using AI to analyze video of the skyline of the San Gabriel Valley and remix stems from the track.
