Genius Innovator aku Goes Beyond Genres With Animated Video For The New Single “Skeleton Queen”
Not your usual artist, Long Island, NY-based genius innovator and urban artist aku is dropping his freshest and finest joint to date, “Skeleton Queen,” alongside a gaming-inspired animated video by rags.
A model, actor and recording artist, aku shines in whatever field or project he undertakes, has had appearances in Vogue, and has had a prolific 2021 year with several singles dropped on the airwaves.
For his new single “Skeleton Queen,” aku worked with producer butterwrld, and the pair seem to have gone through an intense chemistry that birthed this unreal track. Visually, the animation created by rags fit perfectly with the avant garde and surreal energy emanating from the music.
Aku’s popularity skyrocketed after the release of his hit track “rose gold in paris town,” with visuals viewed well-over 100K times on YouTube alone and playlisted by many prestigious curators.
His introspective track “I Don’t Have A Gun” also helped aku strengthen his presence and speed up his rise in urban culture, a concoction of spectacular poetry and rich sonics.
Most often, aku is driven to help his audience conquer sorrow and pain through art, an alchemy he first tests on his own life before sharing it with the masses. He is a firm believer of his inner capacity to shift paradigms through art, using satire, humor, genre-fusions, and meticulously curated rhyme schemes to fulfill his aims, surpassing all expectations with each new drop.
If you are looking to discover an artist who will turn your world upside down and acts as a catalyst to healing, then aku is by far the most interesting artist to listen to this year.

MTS Management Group artists celebrates friendship with new release “A Song for My Friends”
MTS Management Group artists’ latest release, “A Song for My Friends,” is a happy, upbeat song that captures the magic of being together, celebrating, and remembering. The track has a contagious energy that is like the spirit of late-night jam sessions and sing-alongs that happen out of the blue. The production is clean and smooth, but also laid-back.
The tune of “A Song for My Friends” is a toast, and it’s clear what the band wants. A party for the people who have been there since the beginning, the fans who keep coming back, and the nights that artists will never forget that remind them why they fell in love with music in the first place.
“A Song for My Friends” stands out in a world full of overproduced singles because it has heart, energy, and honesty. It’s a moment we shared that I put in a bottle and sent to you with a chorus that you’ll be singing long after the music stops.

Michael Soul hides from being open with new release “Hiding”
Michael Soul’s new single, “Hiding,” is a dark, hypnotic electronic track that takes listeners to a private place in their minds where they are alone, thinking, and feeling upset. “Hiding” was written when the author was very lonely. Michael Soul turns days of being alone, when silence seemed to last forever, and connection seemed impossible, into an immersive sound.
Andrea Mastroiacovo’s polished work makes the single even better, clarifying and deepening the song’s dark mood. The production carefully reflects that emotional weight with simple textures and dark electronic sounds that make you feel like you’re alone with your thoughts.
“Hiding” is a song about feeling alone, scared, and wanting to hide from being open. It asks questions that are quiet but sharp, like why do we hide what we feel? How does fear ruin love? And can we stop going in circles of misunderstanding and emotional distance? These echoes linger long after the track ends, prolonging the sound.
