  • Kid Krow by Conan Gray Kid Krow by Conan Gray
    Kid Krow by Conan Gray Kid Krow by Conan Gray graphic by Julie Liu At only 20 years old, Conan Gray has taken the world by storm with his relatable music and mellow singing voice. After releasing his EP “Sunset Season” in 2018, Gray moved on to create his most recent album “Kid Krow” which debuted on March 20. “Kid Krow” showcases intimate music as found in previous albums while diversifying the music with more pop-style tracks. It nostalgically carries listeners through Gray’s high school experiences, from friends to money problems to crushes. Gray makes an ode to his online and personal friends in “Comfort Crowd” and “Little League,” which discuss his childhood relationships, as well as in interludes “(Can We Be Friends?)” and “(Online Love).” These intimate songs are dedicated to those who have supported him on social media since the start of his career. Although Gray is known for more mellow music, pop songs “Wish You Were Sober” and “Maniac” stand out as hit singles-to- be, with the latter already at a ranking of 49 according to Headline Planet. With the impressive vocals, infectious bass line, and teen spirit, there is nothing missing on these tracks. The theme of teenage rebellion continues onto tunes like “Checkmate,” with Gray singing “Cry me a river ‘til you drown in the lake/’Cause you may think you’re winning, but checkmate.” Despite the pop vibe running through “Kid Krow,” Gray still sticks to his root genre with lyrical music like “Comfort Crowd” and “The Cut that Always Bleeds” that explore Gray’s vulnerable side and feature themes of friendship and heartbreak.

Tik Tok is a hub for people to create content and share dances. A very prominent trend right now is “Point of Views”, or POVs. In a POV, a user will create a story, or insert themselves into an already existing story with music playing behind. However, the music playing behind those videos has a rich history that is not being acknowledged. POV’s are a big trend on Tik Tok. People will choose a song to play and have their character mouth the lyrics from the song as if they were actually saying it in the given situation. A common song that keeps occurring in the app is “Sway” by Dean Martin.

    CONAN GRAY Conan Gray : Schon immer anders US -YouTube -Star mit Debütalbum erneut live in Deutschland Conan Gray ist mehr als nur ein YouTuber. Mit seinen großartigen Songs, einer fantastischen Stimme und unvergleichlichen Ausstrahlung berührt er Millionen von jungen Menschen weltweit. Nun bringt er seinen melancholischen Dream Pop wieder nach Deutschland, um bei vier exklusiven Shows die Fans zu verzaubern: 01.05. Huxleys Neue Welt - Berlin, 02.05. Gruenspan - Hamburg, 05.05. Live Music Hall - Köln, 12.05. Backstage Werk - München. Wenn man mit Conan Gray über seine Kindheit spricht, dann hält er mit der Wahrheit nicht hinter dem Berg. Das Heranwachsen im ländlichen Texas war für ihn keine Freude, also beginnt er mit 12 Jahren Songs zu schreiben, um sich kreativ und individuell auszudrücken. Inspiriert wird er dabei vor allem von weiblichen Künstlern wie den Dixie Chicks, Adele oder Lorde. Sein Herz gilt dem Pop, weshalb er auch auf seinem YouTube Channel zuerst nur Coverversionen bekannter Songs veröffentlicht. Das soll sich aber schnell ändern. 2018 erscheint der Song ›Idle Town‹, den Conan in seinem Schlafzimmer mit einem Billigmikro an einem improvisierten Lampenschirmstativ und einer Software für Hobbymusiker aufnimmt. Mittlerweile hat der Song auf YouTube über 15 Millionen Views und fast 50 Millionen Streams auf Spotify erreicht. Diese Debütsingle ist eine sehr persönliche und emotionale Retrospektive auf eine trostlose Umgebung und wie man sie mit seinen Freunden trotzdem zu einem besonderen Ort machen kann. Conan trifft mit seinem sanften, melodischen und hitverdächtigen Synthie-Pop einen Nerv und verlässt Texas Richtung Los Angeles. An der Westküste tut er sich mit dem Hitproduzenten Dan Nigro (u.a.
