2hollis – Hollis Frazier-Herndon – is redefining the boundaries of rap. His aesthetic universe is strobe-heavy, clipped and blown out – but underneath the experimental intensity you’ll find perfectly-crafted pop. He is a close protégé of EDM superstar Skrillex, and his latest studio record boy has all but cemented his destiny.
Thrust into the spotlight following his 2022 album White Tiger, 2hollis has become a stalwart producer, curating a sound that has garnered a fervent online fanbase. The 2023 track ‘poster boy’ was featured in the EA Sports FC 24 soundtrack, hastening his rise to notoriety.
2024 has been a huge year for the 20-year-old, supporting Ken Carson on The Chaos Tour, he released tracks ‘crush’ and ‘trauma’ and the subsequent third studio album boy which Pitchfork claimed “establishes him as a remarkably distinctive, eagerly experimental savant whose sound never stalls or stagnates”. Following the acclaimed full length, 2hollis dropped the exhilarating single ‘gold’ alongside a self-directed music video.
“Hollis’ ability to swerve and synthesize his scatter-brained source material into a unique amalgam of genre-blurring music stands out. It’s an exciting development for an artist who may just be scratching the surface of his best work.” - Pitchfork
“boy, is a testament to his vast musical range and depth, showcasing both moments of grandeur and profound intimacy” - Ones To Watch
Following a ground-breaking year, 2hollis will kick off 2025 with a sold-out Leg One North American tour in January and February, before heading to Australia.
2hollis says he is “connected to the light”. Come see for yourself.
