Yo, LA fam, let’s talk about some serious heat coming straight from Manila with a Cali twist! Rapper Young Cocoa and R&B sensation DEMI are rolling up to the Rappler Live Jam stage on Thursday, August 28, and they’re doing it as a dynamic duo. These two are bringing that SoCal summer energy all the way to the Philippines, and we’re hyped to see them turn up the vibe.
Both artists have been carving out their own lanes in the local music scene, dropping tracks that resonate with fans far beyond the palm-lined streets of Manila. Now, they’ve teamed up for something special, and trust us, it’s got that Hollywood red carpet buzz written all over it.
Let’s dive into their collab, ‘Cheap Thrills,’ which is all about the electric highs of young love - think late-night drives down the PCH (that’s Pacific Coast Highway for the non-Cali crowd) with the top down. Even though the track was cooked up remotely, Young Cocoa’s slick bars mesh perfectly with DEMI’s buttery vocals, creating a laid-back banger that’s as smooth as a Venice Beach sunset.
It’s a track that pulls from their real-life romantic vibes, blending personal stories into a sound that’s easy to vibe with. You can almost feel the ocean breeze while you’re jamming to this one - it’s that good.
Mark your calendars, because you’re not gonna want to sleep on this performance. Catch Young Cocoa and DEMI dropping ‘Cheap Thrills’ and more at 8 pm on August 28, live on Rappler’s YouTube page. Just bookmark the page or slide over to their channel, and get ready for a night that’s gonna feel like a Malibu party.
“We’re bringing all the feels with ‘Cheap Thrills’ - it’s young love with a Cali twist, and we can’t wait to share it live!” - Young Cocoa
