RMR Completes His ‘4th Qtr Medley’ With One Last Classic Cover
He really doesn’t want the world to see him. …
In wrapping up his short film cover project, 4th Qtr Medley, RMR saves one last classic cover for the finale. After gleefully vandalizing Matchbox Twenty’s ’90s hit “3 AM” with “The Wishing Hour” and Drake’s “Laugh Now Cry Later” with “That Was Therapeutic,” RMR closes things out with the full film, which you’ll have to sit through to get to his smirking teardown of Goo Goo Dolls’ “Iris” and an absolutely killer solo courtesy of his backing band’s guitarist. Watching Black people shred always gets me right in the feels.
4th Qtr Medley is one heck of a way to close out RMR’s first year of stardom, ending as he began: With a head-turning cover of a classic rock-ish hit no one ever would have expected from a ski-masked trap crooner who hangs out with the likes of Westside Gunn and Future. When “Rascal” went viral earlier this year, fans had no idea what to make of it. Was this a joke? A gimmick? A serious attempt to co-opt country music as part of trap rap’s increasingly diverse oeuvre? His next efforts, the single “Dealer” and his eventual debut EP Drug Dealing Is A Lost Art answered “all of the above.” The masked singer turned out to be capable of irreverent homage, groundbreaking originality, and a surprising authenticity. And we still don’t know who he really is or what he looks like, which might just be the key ingredient in keeping us tuned in as we try to unravel the mystery of RMR.
Watch 4th Qtr Medley above.
RMR is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

Lana Crow turns challenges into a celebration with “Laugh With You”
“Laugh With You,” the latest single from Lana Crow, is a sincere rallying cry to embrace life in all its messy, beautiful mess. In the song, indie pop and alt-pop combine to deliver an emotional blow that feels both personal and universal.
“Laugh With You” feels like an instant connection, and Crow is telling you stories of hard times with a cozy, knowing smile. This song is as much about struggle as it is about how strong you are. It serves as a reminder that these struggles are simply what give us the strength to keep going, even when life is tough.
Crow encourages people to welcome them, create happiness in the cracks, and laugh even as the world gets heavy. The result is a song that delicately nudges you to love and embrace yourself. It is an anthem for anyone experiencing tough times who refuses to give up hope. Lana Crow continues to demonstrate her songwriting skills, both musically pleasing and emotionally rich, with “Laugh With You.”
It’s a reminder that it’s how we respond to tough times, rather than how they affect us, that’s key. With this song, not only does Crow provide us with music, but she also lets us know that sometimes a laugh is what we need to remember that there is always something to smile about and that, even when it feels like life has waged war against you, laughter can still be found.

Lisa Boostani creates a mesmerizing tidal realm in “Ocean”
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.
