BOYWITHUKE RELEASES NEW ALBUM SEROTONIN DREAMS TODAY

Today, singer, songwriter, and producer BoyWithUke unveils his highly anticipated new album Serotonin Dreams, out now via Mercury Records/Republic Records—listen HERE. The album includes his new single “Understand,” released alongside the music video today—watch HERE. Serotonin Dreams features collaborations with various artists, including blackbear (“IDGAF”), mxmtoon (“Prairies”), and Powfu (“Contigo”). See the full tracklist below.

BoyWithUke says, “the album is my magnum opus. all produced on my iPad. it completes the ‘Dreams’ saga. i’m waking up.”

He continues, “‘understand’ is the highlight of the album. i had a lot of fun writing it. very important lines in this one.”

Recently, BoyWithUke teased “Understand” in an animated video depicting his life, which premiered on Consequence, who declared “BoyWithUke has proven himself to be particularly prolific” and “‘Understand’ shows potential to be the next of BoyWithUke’s hits.” Watch it HERE.

Leading up to the anxiously awaited release of Serotonin Dreams, BoyWithUke dropped his viral singles “Long Drives” and “IDGAF” feat. blackbear. Billboard praised “IDGAF” as “a gently heartbroken kiss-off anthem about moving on from a toxic ex,” while Ones To Watchdescribed it as “perfectly petty in all the right ways, BoyWithUke and blackbear match earworm, radio-ready production with unapologetic low blows.” Indie Shuffle proclaimed, “BoyWithUke has slowly become a household name in the indie music scene; now working with Blackbear, the combo of melancholia and high-energy pop has made for a gallery of pure entertainment and an addictive earworm at that!”

The tracks followed BoyWithUke’s 2021 smash hit “Toxic,” which has amassed over 1.2 billion global streams to date and nears the Top 5 on the Alternative Radio Chart (currently #7). Not to mention, his record-breaking live performance of the song for Genius’ Open Mic series is the platform’s second highest-viewed Genius video to date with over 60 million views and counting. Meanwhile, his online fanbase shows no signs of slowing down with over 1.5 million YouTube subscribers and 4.5 million TikTok followers.
