(IC) Genre-mashing U.K. phenom Feng shares his brand new Summer At Camp Lakepine EP. Out now, the seven-song set plays like a moment away from the spotlight, finding the rising star locked in with a single friend/producer, Lakepine, while sharing unguarded bars that feel like pages from a LA diary. Over brightly fuzzy beats fit for summer nights, Feng explores the ups and downs of love, lust, friendship, and fame, while his trademark romanticism shines through it all.
Standout track "Coachella" is a glittery banger set to hard bass, crystalline keyboards, and chanted vocals, the song would sound right at home blaring from a festival stage. With inimitable sweetness, Feng pens an ode to his would-be "desert Cinderella," rapping, "Flowers everywhere, glitter in your hair / You're so rare, you're a unicorn affair." But the sing-song verse is for all of us: "Yeah you came to party, it's why I came here too / Dance all night in our dirty shoes."
Feng announced the EP one week ago by sharing the kaleidoscopic kiss-off "Fake Friends." That same night, he brought his renowned party-throwing skills to Venice Beach, where he performed the new songs to fans gathered on the sand. It was an especially fitting setting.
That shows. As Lakepine mixes up woozy synths, gleaming melodies, distorted drums, and hazy textures, Feng pours out his innermost thoughts, looking back at young love on "2023 Summer"; pitting the hedonistic highs and lonely lows of sudden stardom against each other across the beat switch on "Diary," and holding nothing back on the tale of romantic betrayal that is "Vomit.", pitching in on "Smile Through The Pain," a glowing tribute to outsiders everywhere.
Summer At Camp Lakepine arrives as Feng continues to bring his breakout debut album Weekend Rockstar to festivals and clubs on both sides of the Atlantic. After selling out the North American leg of his Weekend Rockstar Tour, Feng launches the EU/U.K. portion on September 8. In between, he's continued his run of riotous festival appearances, springboarding off of an acclaimed Rolling Loud performance to conquer stages at Lyrical Lemonade Summer Smash, Germany's Splash!, Switzerland's Openair Frauenfeld, and Poland's Clout, where he commanded a huge crowd that stuck it out through a storm to party with him.
