Hip hop artist Drew Lines has released his latest single, “Bangarang,” featuring Caesar Reddington and produced by Chuck Alkazian. The track, which was recorded in September 2022 and released on Stryker Records on January 6th, 2023, will be distributed by Ingrooves, a Universal Music Group company. Alkazian is a well-respected record producer with credits including Royce Da 5’9″, Eminem, Chris Cornell, and Pop Evil.
Drew Lines had high praise for his experience working with Alkazian, describing him as “a phenomenal artist, producer, engineer and most importantly, a great human being.” He also expressed excitement about the track itself, stating that “Bangarang” is a song that many can relate to and is about “the ability to endure, maintain control of your dreams and smile through the adversity.” Drew Lines also hinted at the possibility of an upcoming album, saying that “there is a lot to come yet from Pearl Sound and Drew Lines.”
“If you’re trying to grow something new, fresh, real, you can’t just plant the seed on top of what’s there or has been there. You have to clean out the roots and give whatever is going to be new a fighting chance. Things don’t happen because they are supposed to; they happen because they were meant to happen,” he insightfully shared.
Drew Lines, whose real name is Andrew D. Wold, hails from Green Bay, Wisconsin, where he resides with his wife Quinn and their three children. Despite being a newer artist on Stryker Records, a label known primarily for releasing rock music, Drew Lines has a long history in the music industry and is no stranger to success. In the fall of 2021, his single “Rise” topped the NACC chart at #18 and the M3 Radio chart in Brooklyn, NY, at #1 in the Hip Hop category. His single “Love is War” also hit #9 on the M3Radio Hip Hop Chart just three weeks after its release.
Drew Lines’ latest single, “Bangarang,” delves deep into his personal journey, from his time in juvenile prison to his rise as a musical sensation. It showcases his growth as an artist and the new direction he is heading in. “Growing up was a struggle, a hard-fought battle, but every man’s struggle is their own, and I have made it through what I hope to be the worst of my own,” he said. “It’s been a long road, but quitting ain’t in me. I’m always ready for more.”
The rising artist hopes that his listeners will enjoy “Bangarang” as well as what’s to come from him in the future. Overall, the release of “Bangarang” marks an exciting moment for Drew Lines and his fans, and they can’t wait to see what he has in store next.
