A.GIRL is all over the up and coming artists for 2020

Following on from a massive 2019 that saw her release her debut track ‘2142’ and follow up ‘Play’, Western Sydney-based R&B artist A.GIRL AKA (Hinenui-Terangi Tairua) has made a triumphant entry into 2020 with her vivacious new single ‘All Over You’, produced by Taka Perry (Ruel, M-Phazes, Stellie).

The track opens with delicate piano stabs and subtle guitar slides, accompanied by A.GIRL’s sparkling vocal vibrato. The choruses transform as trap-like hi-hats and rolling synth sub-bass are introduced, pairing effortlessly with the slight twists of vocal modulation.

“‘All Over You’ is my summer crush vibes. The song was inspired by my own feelings of letting go and falling hard for someone. If you’ve ever experienced that feeling, then you know how hard it is to explain it to that person. Well, I’m horrible at explaining things so I wrote this song,” she explains.

To celebrate the track, A.GIRL sat down with Forte to chat about her top five up and coming artists that we should be listening to!

Cult Shøtta
Besides the fact these guys are my homies, they are CRAZY talented. They’re basically a mix between Post Malone and some crazy outer-space alien shit. The music can straight-up put you in a trance and take you from head banging till you go mad dizzy, to crying because you’re thinking about your girlfriend from Year 6. I respect their grind and hustle so much that they inspire me to be better at my craft. It’s your loss if you don’t jump on the Cult Shøtta wave right now!

Isaac Puerile
Straight-up raw, talented storytelling life experiences and not afraid to speak about the dark depths of depression and the effects it has on him. I can’t express how much I listen to this dude on a daily basis or whenever I’m low. For people who have been, or are going through depression, this guy says all the things we’re afraid to say.

Bea Moon
First of all, let me just say: GODDESS!
She’s an artist you want to get to know but she’ll never give you that attention because she is just a boss, in her own world working on her vision. Her vibe is beautiful and fun fact, we’ve never met in person, but I promise we’re best friends, as her.

Freesouls
Coming straight out of South-West Sydney with all the bangers. I can vouch that they have a song for every mood you’ve ever felt. Freesouls is a combination of three individuals, Jamel who’s the thinker, a low-key guy who’s a mastermind at hooks. Next, you’ve got Jordan, he’s the ride or die, would cut off his own arm to save yours and can spit bars like no one’s business. Lastly, we have Pep with the smoothest vocals and is always within a five-metre radius of his girlfriend because those two are lovebirds. That’s Freesouls in a nut-shell but there’s more to them than meets the eye.

Lil Golo
This is a new unreleased artist and someone you’ve never met before but I’m excited to introduce. He’s Lil Golo and if you’re a fan of crazy shit, this is the guys to follow!
