WHOiSEE brings a hip-hop twist with new single ‘Chosen’
In a world where reinvention is key to maintaining relevance, Brett Hopkin, the prodigious artist behind the EDM moniker WHOiSEE, has consistently evolved his sound and persona. Once known as Madhatter!, Hopkin took a hiatus from the limelight in recent years, prioritizing teaching, his role as Assistant Director at Dub Academy Music School, and family life.
But as 2023 unfolds, it’s evident that WHOiSEE’s creative hiatus was but a brief interlude. In a triumphant return to form, the electronic music luminary has released an astonishing five singles in just three months, proving that his knack for crafting electrifying dance tracks is as sharp as ever.
Among these new releases is the groundbreaking single, ‘,’ a daring collaboration with the up-and-coming Tampa rapper Rioux V. In the often-divisive realm of EDM-rap collaborations, striking the right balance between dance and rap elements is no small feat. More often than not, the end result is a diluted sound that fails to do justice to either genre.
However, WHOiSEE’s latest offering transcends the limitations that typically plague such genre-blending experiments. The track masterfully combines heart-thumping bass music, tailor-made for late-night club experiences, with a meticulously mixed and mastered production that allows Rioux V’s inspired, impassioned lyrics about being the ‘chosen’ one to take center stage.
