Olivia Isabel Rodrigo is an American singer-songwriter and actress who burst onto the global stage in January 2021 with 'drivers license', a debut single that shattered Spotify streaming records and debuted at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 - making her, at 17, the youngest artist ever to top the chart on debut. Her debut album SOUR (2021) and sophomore record GUTS (2023) both opened at #1 in multiple countries, cementing her as one of the defining voices of Gen Z alt-pop and pop-punk. The GUTS World Tour (2024-2025) grossed over $209 million - the highest-grossing tour by any artist born in the 21st century. A three-time Grammy winner, Billboard Woman of the Year, Time Entertainer of the Year, and founder of reproductive rights initiative Fund 4 Good, Rodrigo is simultaneously a chart phenomenon, an arena headliner, and a outspoken activist - with her third studio album due June 2026.
REI AMI (born Sarah Yeeun Lee) is a Korean-American singer, rapper, and genre-bending artist from Germantown, Maryland, who blends hip-hop, R&B, alternative pop, and pop-punk aggression into a sound entirely her own. After breaking through with Sub Urban's viral 'Freak' (2020) and debuting with her mixtape FOIL (2021), she catapulted to global stardom in 2025 as Zoey in Netflix's animated film KPop Demon Hunters, voicing and performing as part of the fictional K-pop trio HUNTR/X. Their single 'Golden' became Netflix's most-watched film's signature track, hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, and won both a Grammy and an Oscar — firsts for any K-pop song.
Teddy Swims (born Jaten Collin Dimsdale) is a Georgia-raised soul-pop singer whose tattooed exterior and raw emotional delivery mask a voice that sounds like it was forged in a Pentecostal church and tempered by decades of Marvin Gaye records. After years in Atlanta metalcore bands and a viral YouTube cover career, he signed with Warner Records in 2019 and spent the next few years quietly building toward an explosion - 'Lose Control' (2023) became the #1 song in America for 2024, spent 112 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, earned Diamond certification in four countries, and accumulated 1.7 billion streams. His debut album project 'I've Tried Everything but Therapy' (Parts 1 & 2) earned Grammy nominations and festival headlining slots worldwide, cementing him as one of the defining voices of mid-2020s soul-pop.
