Dorrough’s Delirious ‘Brand New’ Perfomance Kicks Off ‘UPROXX Sessions’ For 2021

The Dallas rapper behind ‘Ice Cream Paint Job’ is back with a polished performance to introduce his new persona, Six 3. …

It’s been a while since the last episode of UPROXX Sessions, but your favorite performance show is back with a bang for 2021. We’ve got some big surprises planned this year, so stay tuned. For the first episode back, we thought it’d be fitting to host another return — Dallas rapper Dorrough has come through with some “Brand New” heat for the new year, as well as a new identity, Six 3. You may remember Six 3 as the voice behind the 2009 hit “Ice Cream Paint Job,” which peaked at No. 27 on the Hot 100 that year.

While the Lone Star State mainstay never truly went away, releasing albums in 2010, 2017, and 2018, “Brand New” represents a stylistic rebirth — even if it treads familiar territory, content-wise. The time out of the national spotlight hasn’t dulled Six 3’s refined performance at all, and his energy is exactly what longtime UPROXX Sessions fans have come to expect thanks to previous appearances from IV4, Toosii, DaniLeigh, and BRS Kash.

Watch Dorrough’s performance of “Brand New” above.

UPROXX Sessions is Uproxx’s performance show featuring the hottest up-and-coming acts you should keep an eye on. Featuring creative direction from LA promotion collective, Ham On Everything, and taking place on our “bathroom” set designed and painted by Julian Gross, UPROXX Sessions is a showcase of some of our favorite performers, who just might soon be yours, too.

Lisa Boostani creates a mesmerizing tidal realm in “Ocean”

Lisa Boostani

Lisa Boostani’s “Ocean” takes you deep into a sensory world where body, spirit, and myth come together, beyond the surface of genre. Boostani makes a soundscape that is both ethereal and deeply human by combining the broad essence of psychedelic pop with the strong appeal of alternative rock.

Her voice rises as if it is coming from deep within her, shaped by emotion rather than action. She intentionally channels the intangible, turning weakness into strength rather than a source of pain, and “Ocean” tells people to get involved in this inner world, not just watch it. This release is an integral part of her first EP, “One,” which will come out in March 2026 and is based on love, sensuality, and unity.

If “Ocean” is any indication, the EP will show sensuality not as something pretty, but as a kind of spiritual intelligence, a way to know yourself by connecting with others. The song’s textures and structure have an aquatic quality, moving between clarity and delirium, rhythm and freedom. Its emotional focus is on immersion instead of resolution.

The striking quality of “Ocean” is the blend of the mystical worlds. Boostani understands that strength often shows up as gentleness and that deep feelings are better expressed through frequencies than words. She wants people to see consciousness as immediacy, sensation as truth, and openness as an undeniable strength.

NOAH. captures the unspoken signals in enchanting R&B track “That’s Bless”

NOAH.

“That’s Bless” captures the unspoken late-night message, the smile that was exchanged from afar, and the feeling you sense but are afraid to say. NOAH. offers a song with a smoky R&B feel and lyrics that capture unspoken tension, firmly in the realm of emotional ambiguity, where connection is clear but not defined.

This piece concerns the subtle discomfort of mixed signals and quiet longings, when looks say more than words ever could. NOAH. handles the theme with restraint, letting the chemistry simmer rather than explode. NOAH.’s delivery shows a confident gentleness, recognizing that some feelings don’t need strict definitions to be real.

In “That’s Bless,” he captures the essence of connection and the compelling allure that endures, even when both parties pretend it is not there. The composition is based on real-life events, and it acknowledges that specific attachments endure in the heart long after one has persuaded oneself of having progressed.

“That’s Bless” is at the crossroads of closeness and distance, clarity and confusion. The song doesn’t resolve the tension it talks about, and that’s what makes it so powerful. It sums up the connection we say we don’t want but keep coming back to in memory, rhythm, and pulse.
