[September 18, 2021] – Today, rising hip-hop artist whiterosemoxie releases TROJAN, closing the chapter to the trend of double singles with finale tracks, “Luck Ain’t Real” and “Run Run”.
TROJAN is an intricate and euphonious culmination of moxie’s journey experiencing the highs and lows of falling in love and hustling towards success, that includes previously released standout A-side / B-side tracks on FOREVER, BEELINE, GIVE or TAKE, and more.

TROJAN and its inclusion of other catalogue fan favorites captures the attention of new and current fans as he embarks on his fall tour beginning 9/18.
“Luck Ain’t Real” combines striking melodies and impassioned lyricism to illustrate moxie’s metaphorical death, deriving from the agony of heartbreak and deception. “Run Run” emboldens itself with hyperpop and trap influences, using synthesizing beats and arpeggiated vocal expression. This uptempo track details moxie’s discovery of solace within his newfound success as an artist. Undoubtedly, TROJAN in its entirety represents moxie navigating his identity as he confronts life’s hardships and wonders.

about whiterosemoxie:
The Detroit native may have just finished high school, but his music is starting to resonate with kids around the world. At a mere 18, “moxie,” who started making music after a near death experience, was named Pigeons & Planes Best New Artist of the Month (April). Until recently, he made all his music alone in his basement pulling beats offline, so it’s not surprising that his lyrics are vulnerable and introspective. His debut full-length studio project, white ceilings, which dropped back in March, has already garnered him the eyes of the industry with over 5 million streams. On white ceilings, moxie encapsulates the energy and diversity of his and his peers’ high school experience growing up on Detroit’s west side as he looked towards graduation and his future. The white ceilings they see everyday hanging out in basements become moxie’s metaphor for removing the ceilings people try to put on his limitless potential.
Consisting of melodic rap, R&B and trap influences, mixtape grae ceilings picks up where his debut project, white ceilings, left off, documenting the upheaval that has since ensued and the grey area he feels himself and the world trapped in: COVID cutting his senior year short and leaving him and his friends with a zoom graduation and no prom; getting a record deal but not being able to go to studios or tour; turning 18 and moving out on his own but being quarantined away from his friends; tasting the freedom of adulthood, but the daily news cycle reminding him that he and his people are not really free in a country where they can be killed any day. whiterosemoxie notes that grae ceilings is a reminder that in all the grey area and this time of transition, the people around you have to be the rock and foundation.
whiterosemoxie went from viewing white and ‘grae’ ceilings to festival skylines; earlier this year he performed at Salt Lake City’s Hive Festival and Rolling Loud Los Angeles. Up next, a tour with Riz La Vie that kicks off in New York and heads to cities such as Philadelphia and Minneapolis. Additionally, the artist dropped a brand new EP, TROJAN. whiterosemoxie’s sonic conveyance of vulnerability is ever-present in TROJAN. The full-length visual and aural project is an immersive culmination of his hardships, pain, success, relationships, and grievances. moxie utilizes the power of musical and creative storytelling to reign in current and emerging fans as he orates a relatable story of change, transformation, and growth.
