Fiery musician, producer, and storyteller Jairic unveiled an enthralling music video to accompany ‘Still AF Gospel’, the closing track off his latest EP, n=40 (December 2025). The music video premiered on renowned publication Vents Magazine, while the EP has received support from esteemed tastemaker publications Wonderland Magazine, NOTION, CLASH Magazine, and EARMILK, as well as landing NPR Music radio support. Jairic has played a series of high-impact performances, including exclusive sets atChâteau Les Alouettes in Cannes and Villa Balbiano on Lake Como, as well as a featured live appearance at the Paris premiere of the short film Azur. Jairic’s work spans France, Italy, Prague, and the U.S., drawing nearly 2 million streams across platforms. Every release is fully self-written, self-produced, and self-performed, paired with cinematic visuals that blend modern luxury with underground grit, marking him as a rising force at the intersection of music, film, and fashion.

Born and raised in Detroit, Michigan and currently based in Cannes, France, Jairic was shaped at a young age by a musical family. He began producing hip-hop for local Detroit artists before stepping into his own raw, cinematic, and fiercely independent sound. Influenced by Nas, Wu-Tang Clan, Detroit’s underground, classic funk, 60s rock, and film scores, Jairic blends lyrical weight with genre-defying sonics.

n=40 is the sharpest honing of Jairic’s artistry to date, sure to ensnare fans of A$AP Rocky, Eminem, and Kanye West. ‘Still AF Gospel’ is an incendiary showcase of Jairic’s finesse as a wordsmith, with thrashing production bolstering his high-octane delivery. The accompanying video, directed by Vansh Luthra, sees Jairic tapping into his inner child as he dons a schoolboy outfit, slipping between playfulness and contrasting visions of adult parties and introspection, all while delivering a high energy performance worthy of a sermon.Speaking on the video, Jairic shared: “‘Still AF Gospel’ is a love letter to my children — a reminder to learn relentlessly, love deeply, and never lose the edge this world requires. It’s where my father instincts meet the principles I live by. These codes are my faith. Protect absolutely. Reflect honestly. Strike only when necessary. This is gospel — still as f***.”

Mitski Returns With Nothing’s About to Happen to Me, Set for February 27 Release

Mitski has confirmed her eighth studio album, Nothing’s About to Happen to Me, arriving February 27 via Dead Oceans. The Japanese-American artist has spent the last decade establishing herself as one of indie rock’s most incisive voices, turning personal unease and cultural displacement into sharply observed songs. From the raw urgency of Puberty 2 and the conceptual precision of Be the Cowboy to the orchestral sweep of 2023’s The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We, she’s consistently balanced intimate confession with ambitious production, earning a reputation for records that feel both private and universal.

The lead single ‘Where’s My Phone?’ arrives with a video directed by Noel Paul that pulls directly from the paranoid, claustrophobic atmosphere of Shirley Jackson’s We Have Always Lived in the Castle. Mitski appears as a withdrawn figure holed up in a decaying gothic estate, watching as outsiders force their way in. The visual setup leans into isolation and violation that are recurring themes in her work, while keeping the tone controlled and unsettling rather than overdramatic.

Several players from the band that backed her on the The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We tour contributed to the new recordings. Last year also saw the release of a concert film and live album documenting those shows. Meanwhile, Mitski continues work on the stage musical adaptation of The Queen’s Gambit. With Nothing’s About to Happen to Me on the horizon, another close examination of solitude and intrusion seems to be taking shape.

Watch Jairic Go Full Duality in ‘Young, Old, Short & Tall’ Video

Out now via Rich Air Music, Jairic‘s ‘Young, Old, Short & Tall‘ lands as the hard-hitting closer before his n = 40 EP hits December 5. The Detroit-raised, Cannes-based artist stays fully self-reliant—writing, rapping, and producing everything himself—which has stacked almost 2 million streams and earned props from Wonderland Magazine, NOTION, CLASH Magazine, EARMILK, and airplay on NPR Music. His palette mixes Nas-level wordplay and Wu-Tang density with Detroit rawness, funk grooves, ’60s rock punch, and moody film-score vibes, making him a natural pull for anyone locked into 21 Savage, Young Thug, Playboi Carti, or A$AP Mob territory.

Sonically, it grabs you quick with an earworm refrain, then Jairic’s precise, high-energy bars ride a beat that opens sharp and energetic before the distortion creeps in heavier, adding that chaotic swell under the finesse.

The Bastien Leblanc-directed video steals the show though—Jairic owns a massive, extravagant mansion, dancing fluidly and firing off witty bars in opulent rooms that drip wealth. That polished excess slams against the track’s gritty core, visually mapping his journey from underground Detroit to European high society; the contrast feels intentional and loaded, every shot reinforcing the tension between street roots and current elevation in a way that elevates the whole release.

Jairic shared: “There are so many beautiful people in the world—and then there’s a ton of hate and doubt. Be strong. Keep forging and let the fire burn inside. There are a thousand reasons to stop—forget them.“

‘We Were Called The Foxx’ Marks Next Step for Plain Mister Smith’s Indie-Folk Push

Out now on October 24 via Amelia Recordings and Symphonic, Plain Mister Smith‘s ‘We Were Called The Foxx’ arrives as the latest preview from his building catalog, hot on the heels of the wry ‘Miss Sunshine’ and ahead of a spring 2026 album release. Once handling guitar duties for the shadowy Canadian darkwave group Moev, Smith now channels that experience alongside his role as a cellist in the Vancouver Philharmonic Orchestra, creating under his alias a sound that’s picked up endorsements from tastemakers including Wonderland Magazine, CLASH Magazine, NOTION, Under The Radar, Earmilk, METAL, Noctis Mag, and Atwood Mag. Rooted in scenes across Vancouver and London, his work layers indie-folk arrangements with sharp, memorable lines and an undercurrent of personal reckoning—appealing to fans of Tame Impala‘s layered haze, Death Cab for Cutie‘s introspective drive, and The Beatles‘ effortless earworms.

‘We Were Called The Foxx’ recalls tales of playful memories from his youth and all the trials and tribulations that came with it, channeling it into this track. It features guitar riffs inspired by The Cure, a clean rhythm section, and gentle vocals by Findlay Brown to help convey the feel of tugging on the delicate and pricelessness of cherished memories.

Plain Mister Smith shared: “‘The Foxx’ was my first band in grade 6 or so. It was a bit of a sonic disaster – I don’t even think we knew we needed to tune our guitars. But you have to start somewhere/sometime! ‘We were called the Foxx’ is a testament to the crazy cacophonic shenanigans we got up to as pre-pubescent want-to-be rock gods.“
