Ecency Rising Artist Challenge — Week 2

Discover New Music. Share Your Ecency Link. Earn HSBI + Token Tips.

YouTube’s Artists on the Rise page drops fresh talent every week — new voices, new genres, new energy. And Ecency is the perfect place to turn that discovery into something bigger.

We’re not just listening to music.
We’re building a community.
We’re inviting new people into the decentralized world we actually believe in.

This week, I picked three trending artists with completely different vibes.

A hyperpop provocateur shaking up festival stages, a Chicago drill prodigy turning raw storytelling into chart momentum, and a Canadian alt‑country singer whose confessional songwriting is breaking into international charts. Together, they represent the wild range of artists bubbling up across YouTube’s Artists on the Rise: dance‑pop chaos, gritty street romance, and emotionally charged folk‑rock.

The Rising Artists only updated with two new tracks so I had to go back to find an older track, but I think you all will enjoy it even if it's a few more weeks older.

Why This Challenge Matters (Ecency Edition)

Every backlink you drop on YouTube becomes:

• A public invite to Ecency

• A gateway for new creators

• A signal boost for decentralized communities

• A way to grow Hive without shilling Hive directly

You’re not asking people to “join Hive.”

You’re inviting them to my Ecency post, where the platform does the onboarding automatically.

This is how we grow — organically, creatively, and together.
