THEY.

Los Angeles-based duo THEY. defy easy categorization, with a deft blend of R&B, hip-hop, rock, and pop spawned by such varied influences as Nirvana, New Edition, Ed Sheeran, Taking Back Sunday, and James Brown. Blurring genre lines, the pair first made waves with their contribution to Zhu's 2015 Genesis Series track "Working for It," which also featured Skrillex. Much like that song's mixture of sounds, their own music aimed to surprise and manipulate expectations on 2017's Nü Religion: HYENA and 2020's The Amanda Tape. Their third album, Nü Moon (2023), includes collaborations with Kacey Musgraves, Bino Rideaux, and Yung Bleu. Love.Jones, a throwback to '90s and 2000s R&B, appeared in 2025.THEY. were formed by Denver producer Dante and Washington, D.C. producer/vocalist Drew Love. They both arrived in Los Angeles separately, choosing different songwriting paths: while Drew wrote for R&B singers like Chris Brown and Jeremih, Dante lent his talents to artists like will.i.am and Kelly Clarkson, even winning a Grammy for his work on Clarkson's "Mr. Know-It-All." After a chance meeting, Drew and Dante combined their talents and decided to officially form an act. Once the Zhu track built a large online following -- racking up millions of streams -- they released their debut EP, Nü Religion, in late 2015. The three-song effort featured heavy guitar effects, atmospheric production, and a combination of woozy singing and rapping, like the Weeknd, the-Dream, and Mind of a Genius labelmate Gallant. In 2016, the duo released "Say When," a biting indictment of police brutality against Black Americans that layered jagged guitar and Drew's gritty rapping. The ominous "Deep End" followed months later as THEY. were in the midst of a world tour with Bryson Tiller. These tracks would appear on their debut full-length, Nü Religion: HYENA, which arrived in early 2017. THEY. returned the following year with the singles "Thrive," "Ain't the Same," and "What I Know Now," featuring Wiz Khalifa. The latter track appeared on their star-studded Fireside EP, which recruited Jessie Reyez, Jeremih, Vic Mensa, Ty Dolla $ign, and Gallant for six genre-blending collaborations. In 2019, THEY. teamed with Dillon Francis for "'Til I Die," which they followed with "Stop Playin." The duo began 2020 with the stand-alone single "Red Light Green Light," then began releasing tracks like "Count Me In" and "STCU" with Juicy J, which appeared on their next album, The Amanda Tape. A version of "Count Me In" featuring Kiana Ledé was released in 2021. The next year, THEY. issued "Blü Moon," "Comfortable" (featuring Fana Hues), and "Lonely" (featuring Bino Rideaux). The full-length Nü Moon arrived in 2023, including some of their previous singles and collaborations with Kacey Musgraves and blackbear. After signing with drink sum wtr, THEY. released the R&B-centric Love.Jones on Valentine's Day in 2025.
