The announcement follows DD Osama’s latest singles, “BLRRD BLRRD” and “Pelle,” which have accumulated nearly 2 million views on YouTube since their release. Over the course of his career, DD Osama has racked up hundreds of millions of streams and received high-profile endorsements from the likes of Drake, Lil Durk, and Polo G.
Meanwhile, STAR BANDZ, a rising star from Chicago, has made waves with her March 2024 single “Yea Yea,” which has surpassed 10 million streams on Spotify. She followed that success with her debut project, Estrella, in November 2024. STAR BANDZ has a major year ahead as she will be releasing the deluxe version of her debut project, Estrella, on Friday, March 28, and there will be more music to come. She will be representing her hometown with her first major festival appearance at Lollapalooza this summer.
Sugarhill Ddot, also a standout in the scene, received critical acclaim from Billboard, XXL, UPROXX, V Magazine, and more. The teen-rapper recently dropped his 2 Sides of The Story Deluxe album, featuring hits like “My Baby” (feat. STAR BANDZ), “Energy” (also feat. STAR BANDZ), and “Let Ha Go.” To date, Sugarhill Ddot has amassed over 105 million streams in the U.S. alone. All three artists were included in the Complex’s 13 Best Teenage Rappers Right Now list in 2024. Having previously collaborated on tracks and shared stages, the New Wave Tour offers fans the chance to experience all three artists together for an unforgettable drill rap performance.
