In 2022, they gained attention with the singles "Hands Up!" and "XOXO (Kisses Hugs)", which achieved viral status on TikTok and resulted in a contract with Artist Partner Group.
Hamilton's first full-length album, Sassy Scene, was unveiled in 2023. That same year, they teamed up with Odetari on the track "GMFU", marking their inaugural top ten appearance on the US Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart; this song also appeared on their second EP, Myspace Addiction. Their sophomore studio album, Internet Famous (2024), was promoted by the hit single "Faster n Harder", which also went viral.
Early life
Hailing from Dallas, Texas, Hamilton began by creating edits of Japanese anime music videos on YouTube before fully committing to a musical career. They follow a vegetarian lifestyle and have three sisters along with one brother.
Career
Hamilton attributes one of their creative sparks to a South Park video edit. Their 2022 single "Hands Up!", produced alongside Kets4eki and Pixel Hood, climbed to number 14 on the Billboard Dance/Electronic Songs chart. Both "GMFU" and "Hands Up!" gained widespread popularity on TikTok; notably, "GMFU" reached the top five on the same Billboard chart and peaked at number 23 on the Official New Zealand Music Chart.
The debut album Sassy Scene was released on March 3, 2023. In 2024, Hamilton collaborated with Scene Queen for the track "Stuck". On February 28, 2024, they dropped "Faster n Harder", followed by multiple remix editions. That year also saw them embark on a European tour and announce plans for a global tour.
Musical style
Hamilton's sound is often categorized within EDM and Krushclub, although they personally describe their genre as "Sassy Scene." They acknowledge influences from artists such as Kesha and Lady Gaga. Hamilton is regarded as part of the scene music movement, reflecting current digital music culture trends.
