Quotable Lyrics:

Kicking the sun like it’s FIFA, moonwalk in Ibiza
I’m off the pillow, a dreamer, running up the hill screaming
How many times I tell y’all I ain’t tripping on s***?
I ain’t holding my tongue I ain’t faking no funk
That’s a heavy a** gun (Bow, bow, bow)
Now yo’ a** laying in the sun

1999 Write The Future, Rich Brian, And TiaCorine’s ‘Pump It Up’ Is An Avant-Garde Jock Jam

by

Mysterious musical collective 1999 Write The Future is less than two months removed from the release of their debut album hella, but they are already on the move, dropping another quirky new single. “Pump It Up” takes its name from the favored refrain of the jock jams of the ’90s and appropriately, takes heavy inspiration from them, with synthetic laser blaps, echoing bass, and rapid tempo, all supported by energetic raps from Uproxx cover star Rich Brian and TiaCorine.

The amorphous, 88rising-affiliated group, which has never really officially codified its membership, has gained a lot of popularity in a relatively short time thanks to their adherence to an anything-goes policy of musical eclecticism. One of their first singles, October’s “World Stop Turning,” embraced shoe-gazing indie pop, while “Light Rails” from this January, stuck to more straightforward hip-hop, even going so far as recruiting Rick Ross for a chest-beating guest verse. They kept up the trend of recruiting guest rappers on “Slopes,” rapping Migos’ Offset to trade rapid-fire verses with 88rising’s Warren Hue.

That trend continued on hella, which featured appearances from Busta Rhymes, De La Soul, Ghostface Killah, and Smino, while also delving into a diverse array of musical styles, firmly establishing 1999 Write The Future as a team any music fan will want to keep an eye on.

Listen to “Pump It Up” above.

This hip-hop collective has been picking up steam over the past month and a half or so. They have been frequently dropping singles with various artists. 1999 likes to experiment with their sounds and it makes them a unique prospect.

Some of the tracks that have caught our attention from them include “LiGhT RAiLs” with Rick Ross and Rich Brian. This may be the biggest banger they have dropped and it features a killer soul/trap beat from redveil. We also thoroughly enjoyed “MiNt cHoCoLaTe.” That featured jazz ensemble BADBADNOTGOOD, Westside Gunn, as well as Conway the Machine.

1999 WRITE THE FUTURE Has Another One With “Silence STArEs Me Down” Featuring Rich Brian & Cuco

by

1999 WRITE THE FUTURE, an ever-growing hip-hop collective that is overseen by 88rising and RCA Records, is showing why they belong. It formed in late 2023, but its impact is already being felt. Rich Brian has been a big reason why it is quickly spreading like wildfire. Since he is tied to the 88rising label, the Indonesian multi-hyphenate has been placed on a handful of tracks already.

Every single one he has been on has brought its unique energy. The first of which was “WORLD STOP TURNING” with Warren Hue and Zion.T. It was also the inaugural 1999 WRITE THE FUTURE song. Then, he, Rick Ross, and redveil worked together for “LiGhT rAiLs.” Perhaps the biggest banger from Brian and 1999, redveil brought a tremendous beat with chipmunk soul vocals woven into the production.

Now, he is back to promote this exciting set of collaborations with indie/bedroom pop singer Cuco. “silence STArEs me down” is a somber track about loneliness and not being able to take on the world with someone you love. Cuco brings a simple, short, but catchy chorus that has an earworm of a melody once you hear it. “And I know that if I really try / I can bring myself to make it right / I just gotta understand what’s happenin’ when silence stares me down.” Brian and Cuco also did a karaoke-style performance of the track, so be sure to check that out as well.

Quotable Lyrics:

Twenty-four hours is not enough to split my time (Nah)
And three years were just way too long for a bumpy ride
I took an exit, then I met the onе that really cracked my smile
I didn’t еxpect it, but plans are laughable, when times divine
With you, I’m always tryna spend like an hour more
But you said that we not together, the fuck are these flowers for?

1999 Write The Future Rides Slippery ‘Slopes’ With Offset And Warren Hue On Their New Single

by

1999 Write The Future, a music and art collective by 88Rising, has dropped a heater of a new single. Tonight (January 19), the group shared “Slopes,” which features 88Rising rapper Warren Hue and Offset rapping back and forth over a scorching beat.

The musical chemistry between Hue and Offset is undeniable, as they effortlessly bounce off of each other’s flow and mirror each other’s energy.

Hue, who is originally from Indonesia, can’t help but shine, knowing that he’s making the haters “mad mad” as he’s adjusting to international fame.

“Pull up with a fit and they mad mad / Show money bands in my backpack / Introduce Warren to your grandad,” raps Warren.

Though Offset has been in the game for over a decade, he hasn’t lost momentum. He makes this evident noting that while he’s already shown to be one of hip-hop’s greats, he’s still setting out for more.

“I been going number one I could taste it / I was born up a star up on Elliot / I’ma sell out arenas and the stadiums / I got my gang and my family, I ain’t trading ’em,” raps Offset.

According to a press release, the debut album by 1999 Write The Future arrives “soon.”

In the meantime, you can see the “Slopes” video above.

Warren Hue is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

We against defeat, that’s not our fantasy

Rich Brian’s 1999 Write The Future Collective Has Rick Ross Joining Him On The Electric ‘Light Rails’

by

Rich Brian’s music collective, 1999 Write The Future, treated fans to a new song titled “Light Rails,” which features Rick Ross. The two featured artists had previously collaborated together for the 2021 Shang-Chi And The Legend Of The Ten Rings soundtrack, giving them the comfort to take turns on the verses.

Uproxx cover star Rich Brian kicks off the track, delivering some fun pop culture references in the process. “Courthouses full of people pointin’ fingers / Little did they know, It’s gon’ take more than that to bury me / Killin’ Bills feelin’ like I’m Tarantin’ / We against defeat, that’s not our fantasy,” he raps, according to Genius.

“Top-down, my smoke thick (Huh) / Free throws, I don’t miss (Huh) / White tees, my hat back,” Rick Ross adds. “My b*tch bad, I love this / I run past that f*ck sh*t / That small talk, some f*ck sh*t.”

Rich Brian’s ‘World Stop Turning’ On His Dreamy New Song With Warren Hue And Zion T

by

Rich Brian and Warren Hue are already teammates at 88rising, the management company and record label that graced Uproxx’s April 2022 cover. Now, alongside Zion. T, they’re deepening their bond with 1999 Write The Future, described in a press release as “a new media and artist collective” supported by Friday’s (October 13) single release, “World Stop Turning” via 88rising.

“The singer/rapper trio reminisce on former relationships, looking back on spurned lovers who won’t be missed when the world stops turning,” the press release also explained.

The accompanying video is a four-minute glimpse into how Brian, Hue, and Zion. T would ideally spend a Saturday afternoon. They drive casually around in the car, play basketball, and hit up the skate park.

At another point, a woman is singing along karaoke-style in her living room, and there seems to be some unspoken tension between Hue and his love interest in a bedroom. Hue sings, “Said, who’s gonna love you when the world stops turning? / When everything you thought you loved / Ends up burning you down, down / And I’m not around.” Hue and his lover hop out of bed abruptly once her parents surprisingly arrive back home, forcing Hue to escape out the window just in time, Rapunzel-style.

Then, it’s Brian’s turn. The tempo picks up to match Brian’s flow. He’s kicked back at the park while rapping, “I ain’t been on the road but I’m still paving / That last album was 2019, I’m still out here raking it They say your 20s are for f*ckin’ up, I’m out here celibate now.”

Zion. T’s smooth vocals bring it home. Dusk turns into night, and a party is forming on the streets as Zion. T sings, “Honey, just relax, you sound like Skrillex / Everything is fun, gonna need something like, SpaceX.” Right on the cue, at the mention of SpaceX, we’re abruptly sucked out into a view of Earth from outer space. “1999” lights up North America.

Watch the “World Stop Turning” video above.
