“California Hills” dropped eight months ago and has built steady momentum—what made you decide now was the right time to push it with a fresh marketing campaign?

“It’s summertime—it’s definitely a summer vibe. I feel as if it’s the perfect time to remind listeners & gain new ones!”Phonzy says. And he’s not wrong. The track, with its breezy West Coast essence and reflective lyricism, feels tailor-made for long drives, late nights, and chasing dreams under the summer sun.

Can you take us back to the moment you created “California Hills”? What inspired the vibe, lyrics, or setting of the track?

Phonzy opens up about the deeper inspiration behind the song: “As an artist or entrepreneur, chasing a dream can pull you away from people and home. I was trying to captivate the lost longing-for-home feeling… on top of a few other Easter eggs.” He encourages listeners to dive deeper into the story through his recent appearance on the New Limit Podcast, where he explores the layers and hidden meanings within the record.

“We’ve gotten nothing but love since the release,” he shares. “It’s gained us fans, positive exposure, and long-lasting relationships. We’ve even heard deep testimonies on how the song helped people through certain things—it’s actually amazing, the power of music.” That emotional connection has transformed California Hills from just a track into a personal anthem for many.

What message or feeling do you want listeners to take away from “California Hills” when they hear it now in 2025?

Phonzy’s answer is simple but impactful: “Never stop going, no matter the situation. There’s sunshine at the end‼️” That optimism has become a cornerstone of the track’s identity—a reminder to stay focused on the journey, even when the road feels heavy.

Are there any visuals, remixes, or performances in the works to breathe new life into the track and reach a wider audience this year?
