After a quieter 2024 than he had planned, Zürich-based artist SHAW BANX is officially back with his latest single, “BLAKE LIVELY”—a bold standalone track leading up to his highly anticipated project, BANX. The song marks a new era of music for the Swiss artist, promising a year full of new releases, fresh energy, and boundary-pushing soundscapes.
Blending hard-hitting drums, hypnotic melodies, and futuristic production, “BLAKE LIVELY” is a statement piece—SHAW BANX at his most confident and creative. He credits Dashotb for the sample, while taking charge of the drums himself, ensuring the track carries his signature style and intensity. Drawing inspiration from artists like Iann, Don Toliver, and Yeat, SHAW BANX crafts a sound that sits somewhere between melodic rap and atmospheric trap, fusing catchy hooks with deep, immersive beats.
This release is just the beginning. SHAW BANX has made it clear that 2025 is going to be a defining year for his artistry. “Last year, I didn’t drop as much as I wanted to, but this year we’re ready. I’ve got a couple of projects loaded.” With his upcoming project BANX on the way, fans can expect a consistent stream of music that showcases his evolving sound and creative vision.
Special shoutouts go to Rikky Red, Zzipper, and Zazamakinbangerz for making sure his music “sounds the way it’s supposed to.” But SHAW BANX is only getting started—when it comes to dream collaborations, he has his sights set on Timbaland, Pharrell, and Ye, particularly for their legendary production skills.
