## Summary

Los Angeles-based artist 2hollis has released a new single titled 'Hurt', marking a deliberate change in direction from the sound of his major-label debut album. The track leans into abrasive, rave-influenced production, moving away from the "synthetic rage rap" style that characterised his previous work, and signals the start of a new creative chapter for the artist.

The single is accompanied by a music video that 2hollis both directed and edited himself, continuing the distinctive visual identity that has come to define his output. His debut album, 'star', proved a breakthrough success, reaching number 11 on Billboard's Top Dance Albums chart and racking up millions of streams, and was followed by sold-out headline tours across North America and Europe as well as festival appearances at Coachella and Lollapalooza.
