Fusing intimate emotion with explosive energy, Slushii teams up with melodic rap artist Seddy Hendrinx for “Wanna Be The One,” a track that commands your full attention. Following the cinematic intensity of February’s “It’s Not Over (Til It’s Over),” this latest release marks the second single off “Operation: Overload” — Slushii’s forthcoming EP, out next Friday, April 25.
In “Wanna Be The One,” Slushii dims the lights and sharpens the focus while still delivering the sonic punch that’s become his signature. A laid-back trap rhythm pulls listeners in with hypnotic ease, gradually building toward a burst of energy that disguises heartache in motion and melody. Seddy Hendrinx steps in over the returning trap beat, his smooth, emotionally raw verse gliding with ease before the track swells into a rush of vibrant arpeggios, thick basslines, and shimmering detail.
It’s a track that captures the contradiction of modern love: intense yet uncertain, joyful but haunted. With each layer, “Wanna Be The One” draws listeners through waves of tension and release, culminating in a moment of catharsis that’s felt as much as heard.
The single follows a string of high-impact releases from Slushii, including a star-powered remix by The Chainsmokers of his viral track “Past Lives”—a rare collaboration between his main moniker and ambient alias sapientdream. As momentum builds towards his “Operation: Overload” EP, Slushii is proving there’s no ceiling to his sonic universe—just new dimensions waiting to be revealed. In addition to the EP, fans can expect a string of exciting projects and announcements rolling out throughout the summer as Slushii continues to expand his creative universe.
