WHAT IT IS: Hailing from Seattle, 19-year-old former high school football star Charlie Finch, aka charlieonnafriday, was a junior when the pandemic hit, so he pivoted to music and quickly blew up on TikTok. His major-label debut, ONNAFRIDAY, which spans pop, rap and country, features Kidd G and the late Lil Keed and yielded the hit track “After Hours.” The latest single from this musical chameleon is the brand-new “Enough.” There’s also a collaboration in the works with his Internet friend turned mentor Macklemore.
