Henri Emil aims for the top with 'Want 2 Be'

Let's be real, breaking into the pop scene is tough, but Henri Emil is doing it on his own terms. The 23-year-old from Düsseldorf only started producing music a year ago, yet his new track 'Want 2 Be' sounds like it belongs in the spotlight. It is a slow-paced hyperpop anthem with heavy RnB and digicore vibes, rolling smoothly at 109 BPM.

What really stands out here is the pure DIY hustle. Henri taught himself Logic Pro in just two months using basic gear from Amazon. He threw in these incredibly catchy vocoder parts and a heavy bassline that instantly grabs your attention. It is essentially a confident manifestation song about wanting to be seen for your art.

If you are into the sounds of Charli xcx, Kim Petras or SOPHIE, this track fits right into that playlist. The outro repeatedly claims 'You'll never forget Henri'. After hearing this hook-heavy record, he is honestly probably right. He has the vision, the fashion and the drive to make it happen.
