Buzzing genre disruptor Rence has uncovered a brand new single entitled “Type 2” today.
Fusing organic instrumentation and glitchy production from the jump, faint acoustic guitar echoes in the background as Rence admits, “I’m a Type 2 when it’s time to fight you.” He rides a self-produced minimalist beat and dips into impressive falsetto before doubling back towards the hypnotic hook, “I get why you feel like, like I don’t mind.” Once again, he artfully balances alternative, R&B, hip-hop, and pop all at once within his own world.
The song arrives on the heels of the bold and buzz-y single “hate u, btw,” released earlier this year along with a DIY music video. It has since amassed close to 600k streams. Continuing to capitalize on the momentum sparked by the release of his Fall 2019 EP, Rence continues to receive acclaim and accolades. Pigeons & Planes named him among “Best New Artists of the Month” while his breakout single “Expensive” [feat. Noah Cyrus] recently surpassed 6 million global streams. In addition, he has received looks from Nylon, i-D, The FADER, Billboard, Paper and more.
