“Over energetic and danceable production, the crooner’s falsetto carries a show-stopping hook... it’s the perfect summer anthem!”
—The Source
“…an undeniably catchy track featuring California's premier rapper on the rise, KYLE.”
—Paper Magazine
NEW YORK, NY (September 1, 2017) – Bay Area singer-songwriter, Marc E. Bassy, recently released his new single, “Plot Twist” f/ KYLE, which has already amassed nearly 8M Spotify streams. Today, the artist dropped the remix version, featuring an assist from multi-platinum selling artist Hailee Steinfeld, who adds some female perspective and flare to the hit’s romantic narrative of ‘one-thing-leads-to-another.” Listen HERE.
"Hailee is one of the most talented artists in pop culture to me,” said Bassy. “She liked the song so I asked her to get on it!"
Last month, Bassy debuted the music video for “Plot Twist” (f/ Kyle) via Paper Magazine, who wrote, “The visual, which features bathroom dalliances and many the hot-and-heavy make-out sesh, sees Marc E. Bassy navigate the honeymoon stage of a relationship with the girl of his dreams which is moving slightly too quick for comfort.” Watch it below. The playful video seamlessly mimics the track’s sonic direction— a fusion of R&B, hip-hop, and pop, topped off with Bassy’s distinct swagger. Fans can stream the track HERE.
“Plot Twist” is currently climbing the Rhythm radio charts and shaping up to solidify Bassy’s presence in the mainstream. The Source recently declared the track, “the perfect summer anthem,” while Hot New Hip Hop called the song an “infectious, pop record that finds Marc & Kyle crooning to the ladies and addressing relationship issues.”
