WHAT IT IS: At just 21 years of age, mxmtoon stands as a bright and engaging voice of her generation. Known for her dreamy pop and introspective lyricism, the Oakland-raised, Brooklyn-based artist is gearing up for the release of her sophomore set, rising, encapsulating a new chapter for the songstress while showcasing the evolution of the sound that launched her career five years ago. Boasting a more mature and complex lens, the set marks the culmination of a trilogy—which includes dawn and dusk, the dual EPs she released in 2020—and will feature singles like “mona lisa,” “sad disco” and “victim of nostalgia.”
