After years of being labelled a pop prodigy, Ruel is rewriting his own narrative. The London-born, Sydney-raised singer first broke through as a teenager, but with 'Kicking My Feet' and the upcoming 'Kicking & Screaming', he's embracing big feelings and unapologetic joy. Growing up might just be his best era yet.
There's also Dry Cleaning, Slayyyter, Haute & Freddy, The Itch and more.
Ten new tracks featuring Kenny Beats, M-Phazes and more arrive in June.
He's set to perform at Lollapalooza in South America next March.
“It’s been pretty daunting to offer up this level of honesty," he says.
The new track explores themes of love and letting go.
Ruel has also unveiled a visualiser for 'Hollywood', directed by Bailen Estrada.
There's another track on the way.
Ruel (@oneruel) has shared the second official single from his forthcoming debut album, 'SOMEONE ELSE'S PROBLEM'.
It's one of over 100 new songs he's written over the past two and a half years, apparently.
Ruel is set to hit the UK next month, with a debut album due later this year.
