Marshmello’s New Album is Bangers Galore—Listen to “Shockwave” Now
After months of teasing, Marshmello has finally released Shockwave, a 12-track masterstroke channeling the producer’s long-lost electronic roots. The record kicks off with the spellbinding “Fairytale,” a brooding beat that eventually culminates in a thick melodic trap drop with booming hip-hop 808s. The tongue-in-cheek “Supernovacane” follows, in which the polarizing producer tips his helmet to his haters with a flippant vocal intro. “Marshmello is the most overrated electronic music artist by the way, ever to exist, of all-time,” whines an uncredited blowhard. “It’s so mediocre. To have it become so popular makes no sense.” One of the album’s most anticipated cuts, “Jiggle It,” delivers thank...

Marshmello’s EDM Roots Bubble to the Surface With Ferocious New Collab, “Hitta” With Eptic and Juicy J
Marshmello, Eptic, and Juicy J have joined forces for a monster collaboration called “Hitta.” While “Hitta” doesn’t quite represent a return to form for Marshmello, whose saccharine, fan-favorite future bass beats have taken a backseat to dance-pop and mainstream hip-hop, it’s an unmistakable return to his EDM roots. The track finds Marshemello tapping one of the electronic scene’s most revered sound designers, Eptic, for a hip-hop and bass music hybrid that doubles as an all-out assault on the senses. “Hitta” foams at the mouth with trap ferocity, highlighted by the bombastic dirty south flows of Three 6 Mafia’s Juicy J, who spits furiously over thunderous 808s in the verses. Stentorian brass shots and frenetic sta...

He even made comments about the ownership of his song masters and rapped, “Why they lock up all the real ones, man? Enough is enough/Labels wanna own my masters, enough is enough.” Juicy J spoke out against his label by releasing a track called “Fuk Columbia Records,” which included Prince’s speech from the Soul Train ...
