Her first track, ‘Build a B*tch,’ was a huge success, and currently has nearly 300 million views on YouTube, and her collab with Sub Urban, ‘INFERNO,’ has almost 50 million views on the platform.

He’s released several hits like ’21st Century Vampire’ and ‘America’s Sweetheart,’ and recently released his hugely anticipated hit ‘Don’t Freak Out,’ which rose in popularity on TikTok.

Quen Blackwell

Fans were delighted to see Quen Blackwell, who has over 7 million followers on TikTok, at the VMAs.

People especially love her for her personality, but it’s clear she’s been working hard on music behind the scenes, with fans saying they love her voice and that they can’t wait to hear more from the young star.

Nessa Barrett & Jaden Hossler

This popular duo first teamed up on the popular hit ‘la di die’  in February of 2021, which now has garnered nearly 40 million views on YouTube, and they even became a real couple not long after releasing the hit, meaning they appeared together in many images from the evening.
