Rising rocker and TikTok phenom Arankai has unleashed his powerful new single “Playing God.” The new release arrives following his first single of the year, “Choke,” and the arrival of his debut album, A Portrait Of Red, last year via Hopeless Records.
Arankai shares of the new release, “A f*** you anthem with fight riffs and sick hooks. Some people will come into your life and take the best of you, take you on a 10-city-tour of hurt by the time they’re through with you. But those people deserve to be left behind and forgotten. They are not worth the effort it would take to hate them.”
Listen to “Playing God” below.
Arankai will be hitting the road later this month on his first-ever headline tour across North America with direct support from Buffalo Farm. Check out his full tour schedule below and purchase tickets here.
