RETURNS WITH VIBRANT NEW SINGLE
“DROP DEAD”
Emerging London-based singer-songwriter KUSHYKUSH returns to the scene with his brand new single ‘Drop Dead’ which sees him stepping into a high-energy pop sound that feels both familiar and emotionally rich. ‘Drop Dead’ is available now on your streaming service of choice via APOLLO Distribution.
Listen to ‘Drop Dead’ below:
Inspired by the retro pulse of The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights,” the driving energy of Dua Lipa’s “Physical,” and the bold confidence of Zara Larsson’s ‘Can’t Tame Her’, the track blends shimmering synths into a cinematic rush.
‘Drop Dead’ is a love letter to romance in its most unapologetic form, inspired by the charm of old-school romance, where cheesy pickup lines, grand gestures, and emotional openness weren’t things to be embarrassed by, but things to celebrate.
With its retro-inspired pop sound, “Drop Dead” invites listeners back to bask in love without restraint, capturing the rush of wanting someone so deeply that you’re willing to give yourself over to the feeling and let it take control.
Perfectly timed for the season of romance, from romantic connection to deep friendships and family bonds, the song celebrates love as something powerful, necessary, and worth chasing. Ultimately, it serves as a reminder that no matter how dramatic or vulnerable it may feel, love remains one of the most human experiences we have.”
Alongside recent singles ‘Wrøng Turn’ and ‘Beautiful Mind’ the track forms part of a growing body of work defined by urgency and a clear creative vision.
