Listen To Triple Threat Montreal Artist RYAN Playground’s “Are You Mad”
Out via Ryan Hemsworth’s Secret Songs label, this emotional yet chilling song will get inside your bones like the cold.
Hot on the heels of her Kendrick Lamar cover, Montreal-based producer RYAN Playground has just dropped her debut single “Are You Mad” via Secret Songs, an online label run by fellow Canadian producer Ryan Hemsworth. This wintery track is a taster of her forthcoming EP elle, due February 24 through the same DIY platform.
RYAN Playground is a triple threat: producer, singer, and songwriter. “Are You Mad” serves as an introspective anthem about the loss of security—her emotional vocals tiptoe around distant, icy drums as she wonders where did I lose you at? Each defeated verse lingers long enough to become a strength—self-doubt turns to resolve, coalescing with the increasingly energetic production. Like the ups and downs of a relationship, “Are You Mad” rides the wave into a hopeful place.
