Lexa Gates (born Ivanna Alexandra Martinez) is a Queens-raised rapper, singer, and performance artist blending jazz-soul atmospheres with spoken word rap and stream-of-consciousness lyricism. Known for a calm, unhurried delivery packed with emotional density, she broke through with the viral single 'Angel' (2023) before signing to GoodTalk/Capitol Records and releasing her acclaimed label debut *Elite Vessel* (2024), followed by the 18-track solo statement *I Am* (2026). A Colombian-Puerto Rican artist who dropped out of school at 15 and started recording at 17, Gates has become one of New York's most distinctive emerging voices - equal parts Sade and Mac Miller, with a flair for conceptual stunts like locking herself in a glass box in Union Square for 10 hours on album release day.
Sienna Spiro is a 20-year-old British singer-songwriter from London who went from posting TikTok covers at 16 to amassing nearly 900 million Spotify streams and landing on Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe 2026. Signed to Capitol Records and produced largely by Omer Fedi, she writes confessional indie-pop infused with soul and jazz, channeling the raw emotional candor of artists like Etta James and Frank Sinatra into chart-breaking anthems about regret, self-sabotage, and longing. Her breakthrough single 'Die on This Hill' hit UK #9 and US Billboard Hot 100 #19, while 'MAYBE.' generated 600M+ TikTok views - all without a single renegade dance.
