The release not only teases more new music to come, but arrives exactly one year after the release of his RIAA-platinum certified breakout single, “i like the way you kiss me” - which has since surpassed over 1.7B global streams, 150M video views, reached #1 on the Billboard Global 200, #12 on the Billboard Hot 100, #3 on the UK Official Singles Chart, and received a BRIT Award nomination for “Song of the Year.”
Following an announcement at his first ever Lollapalooza US this summer, the buzzing artist kicks off a stretch of 25 live dates this weekend that starts in South America and Mexico before coming to the states, with additional festival debuts at Coachella, Governors Ball, BBC Radio 1 Big Weekend and Lollapalooza Argentina, Chile, and Brazil.

Wrapping up the year with a double-pack of singles fancy and xvideos, Artemas continues to work on new music after the arrival of his yustyna mixtape, which debuted at #4 on the Global Spotify Chart and has amassed over 1.9 billion streams worldwide, receiving attention from the likes of Clash, Dork, Variety and EUPHORIA. The mixtape continues to highlight the rising star’s captivating exploration of darkwave alt-pop that is reminiscent of the likes of The Weeknd, EKKSTACY, and The Neighbourhood.
In 2024, Artemas set out on not one, but two fully sold-out headline tours that sold over 50k tickets and featured over 75 dates with stops in Europe, Australia and the United States, including two nights in both New York and Los Angeles.

ABOUT ARTEMAS:
At 25-years-old, UK-based singer, songwriter and producer, Artemas, believes rules are made to be broken. Inspired by the likes of Kurt Cobain and Anthony Kiedis, the self-taught multi-instrumentalist released his first music in late 2020, learning how to hone much of his craft in the confines of his bedroom. By late 2023, his eerie dark r&b sound fully connected, drawing comparisons to The Weeknd, as his single “if you think i’m pretty” has amassed nearly 500M streams leading into the release of his pretty mixtape. The project captured global attention, landing the rising star on “Artist to Watch” lists by the likes of Hypebeast and Ones to Watch, and debuting on Zane Lowe’s “24 for ‘24” roster. Continuing the momentum, he released yustyna mixtape featuring “i like the way you kiss me,” which zoomed up the charts globally reaching #1 on the Billboard Global 200, #12 on the Billboard Hot 100, and #3 on the UK Official Singles Chart, as well as a 2025 BRIT Award nomination, all while selling out two debut headline tours. Now, Artemas proves his staying power with new music and debut performances at Coachella, Governors Ball, BBC Radio 1 Big Weekend + more.
