Following a prolific 2025 marked by high-profile collaborations with Oklou, Yaeji, and Danny Brown, underscores officially kicks off her 2026 era. The rising hyperpop wunderkind, April Harper Grey, just unleashed “Tell Me (U Want It),” a high-energy track that solidifies her position at the forefront of experimental pop.
A Cinematic Chase: The “Tell Me (U Want It)” Music Video
The release arrived alongside a self-directed music video that plays like a miniaturized heist thriller. In the visual, Grey portrays a protagonist on the run after stealing a mysterious USB drive. The plot thickens as the drive’s owner tracks her down, creating a frantic, stylish backdrop for the songโs glitchy production.
Eagle-eyed fans should watch closely during the diner scene. The video features cameos from fellow scene-shapers Jane Removerโwho recently dropped new music of her ownโand Fraxiom, fresh off the release of The Adventures Of Jester Jackalope.
Is a New Underscores Album on the Horizon?
While “Tell Me (U Want It)” serves as a standalone thrill, it marks the third taste of new material following her 2025 singles “Do It” and “Music.” Although April Harper Grey hasn’t officially announced her third LP yet, the consistent quality of these releases suggests a successor to 2023โs critically acclaimed Wallsocket is imminent.
Since her last full-length project, underscores has remained a vital force in the underground, guesting on Oklouโs Choke Enough and working with Umru. This latest single proves she hasn’t lost her knack for blending frantic electronic textures with infectious, guitar-driven melodies.
“Tell Me (U Want It)” is available now on all streaming platforms. Watch the official video below to see the cameos from Jane Remover and Fraxiom.
