He slowly built a listenership with a series of stand-alone tracks, hitting streaming numbers in the multimillions with his 2021 single "Astronaut in the Ocean." Masked Wolf was born Harry Michael and grew up in Sydney. By age 13, he was writing his own rap songs, inspired by favorites like Eminem and Kevin Gates. As he grew up, he discovered other rap influences, and worked some of Drake's cool-headed poise and the sinister atmospheres of American trap production into his songs. Early tracks like 2018's "Speed Racer" and 2019's "Vibin'" gave way to tracks that addressed topics such as mental health and peer pressure on songs like "Numb." Masked Wolf's fame grew exponentially with the release of "Astronaut in the Ocean" in January 2021. The song quickly accrued more than 75 million streams in under a month and set the scene for his music to reach a new level. - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History 2021 20 Astronaut In The Ocean -NAS- 0 x #1 | 0 x Top 5 | 0 x Top 10 | 1 x Top 20 | 1 x Top 40 | 1 x Top 100 Social Media Masked Wolf http://i.imgur.com/1SERq1f.png

April 2, 20215 yr 19 | 18 | 13th week Ava Max My Head & My Heart 6th single from Heaven & Hell Released: 19th November 2020 Label: Atlantic Records Chart Statistics NE (14/01/2021) | 98-78-77-59-46-35-29-25-19-22-19-18-19 Sales: 100k+ Certification: - Status: Standard Chart Ratio 08 Sales 25 Audio Streaming 51 Video Streaming Video w8mBplMtwJ8 Biography Before the thumping club hit "Sweet but Psycho" shot up charts around the world in 2018, Albanian-American artist Ava Max almost quit the music industry: "I was like, if this doesn't do it, then I think I'm going to have to pick another career, because I've been at this for 15 years," she told Apple Music. But her perseverance finally paid off thanks to her slinky hooks and sweet-salty delivery that can both sting and seduce with just one syllable. Born Amanda Koci in 1994, the singer/songwriter grew up in Wisconsin and Virginia before trying her hand in L.A., first at age 14 and then again at 17. She spent the next several years handing out demos and getting rejected by a number of labels and producers. But in 2014, she met producer/songwriter Cirkut, who helped her find her voice. She took on the stage name Ava Max—to honour both feminine and masculine qualities—and solidified the transformation with her asymmetrical "Max Cut" hairstyle. This theme of dichotomy extends into her music, with the cheeky feminist twist of "Sweet but Psycho" and then her 2020 full-length debut, Heaven & Hell. The concept album—split between bright, Gaga-esque disco anthems like "Kings & Queens" and the darker dance-pop fizz of "Salt"—conveys two powerful messages: be yourself and don't give up. "I would not be talking about female empowerment ... or having this much of a voice," she said, "if I didn't go through those obstacles." - Apple Music Top 100 Chart History 2018 01 Sweet But Psycho -1- MILLIONAIRE 2019 13 So Am I -2- 2019 87 Torn -3- 2020 19 Kings & Queens -4- 2020 93 Who's Laughing Now -5- 2021 18 My Head & My Heart -6- 1 x #1 | 1 x Top 5 | 1 x Top 10 | 4 x Top 20 | 4 x Top 40 | 6 x Top 100 Social Media Ava Max http://i.imgur.com/1SERq1f.png
