Yung Raja 

Named as one of NME’s Top 100 essential emerging artists of 2021, Yung Raja’s latest single ‘Spice Boy’ debuted on Spotify’s Viral 50 Singapore & Malaysia charts a day after its release. In July 2021, ‘Mami’ received a shoutout from award-winning The Tonight Show host, Jimmy Fallon on live US television, propelling the ‘Mami’ track to global audiences. Overnight, stream numbers jumped to cross half a million.

Yung Raja has worked with brands spanning BVLGARI, Gucci, Louis Vuitton, and is an adidas creator. Amongst other media, the artiste has appeared on the cover of Esquire Singapore (May 2020), Men’s Folio (November 2019 & December 2020), T Singapore and featured in Harper’s BAZAAR, VOGUE Singapore and Female Magazine. In 2019, Yung Raja won the Asian Academy Creative Award for Best Lifestyle/Entertainment Presenter and Host for his work on Yo! MTV Raps. 

Born and raised in Singapore, Yung Raja aims to reinvent societal views in and out of his homeland, inspire the next generation of cultural conservators, and elevate Southeast Asian hip hop to world class stages through his music. In 2019, the rapper signed to Def Jam South East Asia. 

 

Kayan

As Kayan, in her honeyed vocal style that’s informed by artists such as Jorja Smith and Kali Uchis, she’s always singing about stories – a theme she plaintively carries forward in her debut single “Please.” With a keen determination towards levelling up and expanding her audience, it’s this very flow of enthusiastic energy that makes Kayan one to watch. She’s already conquered stages around the country, holding forth a distinctive narrative as a rising artist who can’t stop, won’t stop.
