I don’t personally know or work with any of these artists – I just discovered their music, loved it, and wanted to share it with more people! I hope you’ll support them too. <3
Okay, the title is a bit unhinged, but it’s how I feel.
A few months ago, I was scrolling through TikTok looking for indie artists to listen to, as always, and as always, I discovered some incredible music.
Here are five of my favorites (along with my usual slightly unhinged visual, vibe, and sonic interpretations) in case you’re always on the lookout for new artists to support as well!
Jai Leprince’s ROCK ‘N ROLL!!!
ROCK ‘N ROLL!!! is a Punk song by Jai Leprince, released on December 21st, 2025. Jai is an up-and-coming independent artist who got their start in the arts through dance and later went on to do musical theater before starting to make their own music.
In his Rockstar Diaries series, he stated, “I wanna preface what I mean when I say rockstar because I’m not just talking about making music. I mean ALL of it. I mean creating an artistic world and a platform where I’m uplifting marginalized voices and bringing awareness to certain social issues that are seen as taboo.”
Jai recently released their EP, on April 3rd, 2026. Go support!!!
Starting with this song because I’ve been obsessed with it since I first heard it, ROCK ‘N ROLL!!! by Jai Leprince is a punk/rock song written and produced by Jai Leprince of Dancepunk Records.
It’s a track that hits fast, loud, and physical, and it’s the kind of song that feels built for bodies on the dance floor before being built for meaning (which is not at all a bad thing!) There’s no introspection or emotional unraveling to be heard here; this is a record that belongs inside the speakers of a crowded room with bad lighting and people packed too close to each other.
Speaking of which, there’s a very specific visual world attached to it, too.
Someone getting ready in front of a mirror. Eyeliner that’s been smudged on purpose. A chaotic party scene shot in slow motion. Flashing lights, bodies moving out of sync, someone standing on furniture they probably shouldn’t be on. A night that’s already gone too far but keeps going anyway. These are the kind of images that flash through my mind as I listen to it.
The song’s lyrics are quite visual, too, and the language feels stylized, almost dressed up. There’s a sort of fashion to it.
“I got these girls so obsessed. Might rock a blue sequin dress. Face card is holy, it’s blessed. Line up my men like it’s chess.”
“I want a pink limousine. So bitches know where I been.”
“Leopard print, medicine, giving you adrenaline.”
The theatricality is hard to ignore.
The track feels cinematic and braggadocious in the best, most intentional way all the way through.
