Trent Vine shares “H8 ME 2”

If you’ve ever wondered what it might sound like if Post Malone and Justin Bieber had a baby and raised their love child on a diet of J-pop, then Australian artist Trent Vine might just be the answer. Drawing on both his Aussie and Japanese roots, the Adelaide-based singer-songwriter spins a new wave pop sound that expresses the freedom of his sonic journey.

Making music unchained by genre restrictions to bring about his own unique creative vision, he shares, “I just kinda do me”. Characterised by his smooth vocal leads that flutter between soaring lines carrying instantly catchy melodies to his fluent Japanese flows, Trent Vine captures a memorable pop sound that’s hard not to love. “There’s a fine line between being realistic and being pessimistic. I try not to cross it too much,” he adds.

Making his introduction in 2020, he dropped his debut single with the track “Burberry On The Floor”, followed up by a string of releases including his first full-length release with the album titled Songs We Wrote For Respectable Women. Linking up with artists such as Akeim Takamura and M4SONIC on collaborative tracks along the way, he now brings us one of his most recent releases with his new single “H8 ME 2”.

Opened up instantly with hook-driven vocals above a vibrant arrangement of delicate guitar work before jumping into a beat-driven vibe, with “H8 ME 2”, Trent Vine shares an upbeat and infectiously catchy new song. As sweet as it is short, coming in at just over two minutes in length, “H8 ME 2” sees a talented artist on the rise lay down a modern pop hit as he continues to go from strength-to-strength with each new move.
