Warren Hue Releases New Single "Rodeo", Out Now via 88rising
Jakarta-born, Los
Angeles-based rising star, Warren Hue, continues the rollout of his TUNA mixtape with the release of his new single, “RODEO.”
Produced by Warren’s go-to collaborator, Chasu, the mid-2010 inspired track
finds Warren at a crossroads, this time on Rodeo Drive. A metaphor for his
growing success and its consequences, “RODEO” details how Warren wants to
impress his partner with his new lifestyle, but wonders if she still finds him
likable or cool.
“It’s a battle between if she still finds excitement in my
lifestyle in LA or not and if I’m able to maintain it,” Warren shared. “The
writing process took me an hour to make the verse and the chorus idea had been
around for a year. I recently revisited it because it made sense with the
universe of my mixtape.” “RODEO” was first teased at the end of the music video
for Warren’s previous single, “SPLIT,” and debuted live during his set at Head
In The Clouds Festival in New York. While in New York, Warren was a guest on
popular video platform, On The Radar Radio, where he gave another impressive performance of
the track. In tandem with the single’s official release today, Warren delivered
a picturesque performance video, hosted by 88rising. Watch the “RODEO”
performance video here and stream “RODEO” on all platforms, here.
Warren Hue has catapulted from hometown hero to international sensation in less than two years since making his artist debut with his album, BOY OF THE YEAR, in the summer of 2022. His most conceptual project to date, BOY OF THE YEAR, which included features from tobi lou and yvngxchris, displayed Warren’s versatility and starpower. Born and raised in Jakarta, Indonesia and now based in Los Angeles, the Gen Z star has run up an impressive highlight reel, including being named one of Forbes Asia 30 Under 30, all prior to turning 21.
He has
also been named one of “NME 100: Essential Emerging Artists” for 2022,
one of the “18 Emerging Artists To Watch Out For In 2022” by Bandwagon, and one of the “25 Artists To Watch In 2022” by Ones To Watch. His biggest accolades include his recent
features on the album, Hella, released earlier this year, with the music
collective 1999 WRITE THE FUTURE, which brought together the industry’s biggest
names, such as Offset, Rick Ross, Ghostface Killah, Busta Rhymes and more.
Warren was also featured in four songs on Marvel Studios’ Shang-Chi & the Legend of the Ten Rings official soundtrack and has partnered with
brands like Honda, GUESS, Samsung and Microsoft. Warren made his Coachella
debut during the Head in the Clouds Forever 2022 set. Last year, he performed
at the Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix, opened for Rich Brian’s sold out arena
tour (10k fans per stop) in China, and was on the line-up for both Head in the Clouds Festivals in New York and Los Angeles. This summer, he
will be returning to the festival in New York. A multi-hyphenate artist, Warren
draws his inspiration from niche art forms to create his ever-evolving sound.
From R&B to house, electronic, alternative hip-hop and industrial genres,
Warren is unafraid to explore and veer towards the unconventional, while
sharing his journey of self-discovery. His latest offers, “TENNESSEE” and
“SPLIT,” detail Warren’s growing confidence as a star in the making.
