1999 WRITE THE FUTURE, an ever-growing hip-hop collective that is overseen by 88rising and RCA Records, is showing why they belong. It formed in late 2023, but its impact is already being felt. Rich Brian has been a big reason why it is quickly spreading like wildfire. Since he is tied to the 88rising label, the Indonesian multi-hyphenate has been placed on a handful of tracks already.
Every single one he has been on has brought its unique energy. The first of which was "WORLD STOP TURNING" with Warren Hue and Zion.T. It was also the inaugural 1999 WRITE THE FUTURE song. Then, he, Rick Ross, and redveil worked together for "LiGhT rAiLs." Perhaps the biggest banger from Brian and 1999, redveil brought a tremendous beat with chipmunk soul vocals woven into the production.
Listen To "Silence STArEs Me Down" By Rich Brian & Cuco
Now, he is back to promote this exciting set of collaborations with indie/bedroom pop singer Cuco. "silence STArEs me down" is a somber track about loneliness and not being able to take on the world with someone you love. Cuco brings a simple, short, but catchy chorus that has an earworm of a melody once you hear it. "And I know that if I really try / I can bring myself to make it right / I just gotta understand what's happenin' when silence stares me down." Brian and Cuco also did a karaoke-style performance of the track, so be sure to check that out as well.

Quotable Lyrics:
Twenty-four hours is not enough to split my time (Nah)
And three years were just way too long for a bumpy ride
I took an exit, then I met the onе that really cracked my smile
I didn't еxpect it, but plans are laughable, when times divine
With you, I'm always tryna spend like an hour more
But you said that we not together, the fuck are these flowers for?
