Polo G)” which gained over a million views in less than 48 hours and counting! Right out of the gate, “Wit Dat (feat. Polo G)” garnered widespread critical acclaim. XXL named it among “The 13 Best New Songs This Week,” and HotNewHipHop described the collaboration as “incredible.” In addition to plugs from REVOLT, HipHopDX, and more, Lyrical Lemonade put it best, “When it comes to artists making major moves so far this year, TheHxliday has got to be towards the top of the list if not in the #1 spot.” TheHxliday is setting the stage for his forthcoming EP, The Most Beautiful Disaster, set to drop in two parts on May 14. Beautiful features “Salsa,” and Disaster features “Wit Dat (feat. Polo G).” Hxliday season is upon us.

ABOUT THEHXLIDAY

TheHxliday isn’t afraid to tap into his feelings. Equal parts introspective and inspiring, the 19-year-old artist is very comfortable with the concept of openness. Through his pop-infused hip-hop, TheHxliday showcases his approach to understanding and digesting life. TheHxliday got serious about music at age 13, after his mom, who was in an alt-rock band called Chick Flick, introduced him to GarageBand and showed him how to loop beats. With music in his bloodline and an incredibly wide-ranging array of genres in his headphones—his favorite artists include My Chemical Romance, Bruno Mars, and Eazy-E—TheHxliday refined and established his own sound across a year of making music in his bedroom. On songs like “Laugh a Little”—from his New Year’s Day Batbxy EP— the rising Baltimore star born Noah Malik Lee offers sage advice for healing oneself while sounding as playful as the title suggests. As a member of the industry-shifting, DIY SoundCloud rap class of the mid-2010s, TheHxliday stands decidedly apart from his peers. TheHxliday’s life changed after dropping his 2018 hit “Enemy.” It’s the ultimate Gen Z breakup anthem, telling the story of the inner strength required to move forward after a toxic relationship ends. It expanded his creative circle to include the inimitable Motown Records, and the Lyrical Lemonade video crew based in Chicago. TheHxliday then followed up with his biggest hit to date “Save Me.” By combining his passion for rock, pop, hip-hop, and R&B, TheHxliday created a mercurial style that refuses to be boxed into any genre. This approach drives his 2021 two-part EP, The Most Beautiful Disaster. He split the project into halves with “Beautiful” highlighted by “Salsa” and Disaster including “Wit Dat (feat. Polo G).”
