YNG Martyr and Logan M Collaborate on “WAIT!”

Ngambri/Canberra rapper YNG Martyr is one of those young acts that has kind of passed me by. I know he’s played hot festivals like Falls, Spilt Milk, and Lost Paradise, and gone viral with his meme-powered single “Nike Ticks”. But he hasn’t really been on my radar, until now. Hearing his latest single “WAIT!” featuring Naarm/Melbourne artist Logan M, I can definitely hear what the fuss is all about.

“’WAIT!’ is about acknowledging the pain of an impending break up and wishing for things to go back to the way they were,” YNG Martyr explained.

This track effortlessly blends hip-hop and indie-pop influences to create a sound that’s fresh and instantly accessible. I can imagine this one blowing up, and with YNG Martyr’s massive online following it just might.

Big Strong Brute Dances Up a Storm in “Wait” Clip

Big Strong Brute has channelled Napoleon Dynamite with the fun clip for his new single “Wait.” The song’s great, but this visual feast of a music video adds another level of enjoyment. Is there anything better on a Friday than watching the Brisbane artist let loose in his loungeroom?

“Wait” comes from Big Strong Brute’s new EP Good Work, which will be released on July 31.
