WTFxPreme-32

I like rap music that has a personal touch and a realness to it. To me that’s what makes rap entertaining it has to have some hardness to it. Rap sounds better with some street stuff in it that’s what adds more entertaining value.

WtfxPreme is also featured on the Rareflavr mixtape.

Bowen Thi - "Ain't My Fault"

March 14, 2022

[INDEPENDENT RELEASE] February 25, 2022 (Houston, TX) FKA Bowen, the growing Asian American artist joins forces with producer Hieloways to produce a sonically dark and rapid track that pays homage to 80s synth-wave music while steering into his own lane.

The single arrives after the highly successful year Bowen received through singles such as “Company,” “Jewels on Fireflies,” and “Say My Name,” eventually dropping his anticipated EP titled “godspeed.”

“Ain’t My Fault” is a song that focuses on mental deterioration following a heartbreak. Yearning for a time when everything was bliss, the song chooses to express the emotion that comes with toxicity. It is assumed in the track that both partners’ roles quickly led to their spirals, leading us to the chorus:

“Ain’t my fault I’m fucked up now / They say I’m crazy, what’s that about? / I’ma shut my mouth and close my eyes / Scream that shit, can you tell me why-“

The video, directed by Mars Alva & Suleman Khan, shows a lone wanderer in Houston looking for an unknown woman. Throughout the video, it is hinted and revealed that the man suffers from a psychotic disorder. Mars Alva carefully crafts a psychedelic experience that beautifully complements the song by using fast cuts and hazy coloring.

Artist Bio:

Bowen Thi (FKA Bowen) is a Chinese-American musician born and raised in Houston, TX. The multi-genre musician began his journey through the high school choir. Bowen Thi also discovered FL Studio during the same time, where he started producing for himself and several of his artist friends. These factors eventually led to his journey of becoming a musician. Since then, he has garnered over 300k in Spotify streams, appearing on Complex UK, and has opened up for artists such as the upcoming Hotel Ugly and Deniz Love. His inspirations include artists such as James Blake, Beach House, Joji, Mac Miller, and Kitaro, which helped inspire Bowen Thi’s unique psychedelic sound. Bowen Thi currently has several singles and eventually an EP in the works, all of which will capture moments through music.
