Rising Artist Skot the Idea Unveils Incredible New EP
Skot the Idea is a rising American-Nigerian artist born and raised in Rockville, Maryland. He also lived in London, UK for almost a decade during his early life, where he found a love for electronic music. Blending this with his background in the US and love for hip-hop, his sound is fresh and dynamic, which is showcased on his brand-new EP, 3 to Thrive Through.
Fusing his smooth rap flow with high-octane electro beats, the three-track project is perfectly executed and makes for a fascinating listen. Speaking further on the new release, Skot says, “This EP has begun the second phase in my 358 series. The cover art is a photo of my father in his youth in another instance in which old photos of my family have matched the energy and the message that I am trying to convey. The circle of life/history repeats whatever you would like to call it. In the first summer when it felt somewhat safe to explore again, I made this EP as a commemoration of the times that we all are having fun exploring again. 3 to Thrive Through is a project to bust out of the cocoon with.”
The EP is led by main single “When The Tune Hit”, a feelgood party anthem. Packed with infectious melodies and a huge anthemic hook, it showcases Skot’s impressive songwriting abilities and will no doubt be etched into everyone’s head after one listen. “With ‘When the Tune Hit’ I tried to embody that song that when you first hit the party is the one to make you start grooving”, says Skot the Idea. “The song also takes the listener through my mindset when I make songs like this, interwoven with how I like to get busy and enjoy a night out. I’ve wanted to make songs as vibrant as this for a while and have become attached to the sound, which will be featured in more projects to come.”
“When the Tune Hit” and the rest of 3 to Thrive Through are available to buy/stream now on all platforms: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/skottheidea/3-to-thrive-through-2.

Artist Prymrr returns tomorrow, October 6, 2026, with her powerful new single "Sick Of It," accompanied by an official music video that brings the song's themes of frustration, intensity, and breaking free. "Sick Of It" captures the feeling of reaching a breaking point and finally refusing to hold back. With an emotionally charged sound and Prymrr's unmistakable energy, the track transforms frustration into empowerment an anthem for anyone who has ever reached the point of saying, enough is enough.
The official music video takes a cinematic and immersive approach, utilizing a one-shot filming style inspired by the visual intensity and continuous-shot storytelling of Netflix's Adolescence. The uninterrupted camera movement creates an intimate, immediate experience, drawing viewers directly into Prymrr's world as the story unfolds. Visually, the video establishes a distinctive atmosphere through a black-and-white foundation, subtle muted earthy tones, and carefully placed pops of red. The restrained palette creates a raw, moody aesthetic, while the flashes of red heighten the emotion and intensity of key moments.
The release will also be followed by a special dance concept video, coming soon. The concept video features dancers from the hometown studio where Prymrr danced as a child, creating a meaningful full circle moment that connects her early dance roots with her evolution as an artist. The visual will also incorporate dancers from the studio, adding a personal touch and nod to the place where her journey began.
Choreographed by Dez Penn, the dance concept transforms "Sick Of It" into movement, using choreography to express the song's themes of tension, frustration, strength, and release. Bringing together dancers from Prymrr's hometown studio Penn Point Dance Academy makes the project especially personal, celebrating the foundation that helped shape her as a performer.
Together, the song, official music video, and upcoming dance concept present different sides of the same story: reaching your limit, confronting what has been holding you back, and just finding the strength. "Sick Of It" is about that moment when you stop explaining yourself and realize you've had enough," says Prymrr. "It's taking everything you've been holding in and finally letting it out."
"Sick Of It" and the official music video are out October 6, 2026, on all major streaming platforms and YouTube. The dance concept video is coming soon.
