Blxst returns today with a hot new single titled "Overrated. "This KTV-worthy jam reestablishes the melodic master Lon Angeles as the sixth man on your best-of R&B bench. Coming off the success of his acclaimed debut EP, No Love Lost, Blxst raises the standards for West Coast R&B with the telltale mix of soulful hooks, polished production, and undeniable swagger that are his hallmark.
On "Overrated," Blxst flips the script on love and loyalty, coming through with a laid-back yet deeply reflective anthem about prioritizing real connections over surface-level romance. Sliding over a buttery-smooth beat dotted with warm keys and crisp percussion, he casually croons about keeping his circle small and avoiding distractions. His voice's emotion and unvarnished honesty make every line hit a bit harder.
Blxst has always excelled in the gray area between hip-hop and R&B, and "Overrated" is no different. What keeps you tuned in is his ability to create melodic head-nodding records with storytelling that sticks. "Overrated" is both classic and refreshing evidence of Blxst's skill for crafting music that is both timeless and of the moment.
Blxst has been proving that since he set foot in the place, he is a movement. Whether self-producing, directing his visuals, or penning a few addictive hooks, his independent grind and authentic artistry remain a calling card in his favor.
With "Overrated," Blxst is marking the new era of what this West Coast sound is supposed to be. Don't be surprised if this one sticks around in rotation for a spell.
