CLIFFWOOD BEACH, NJ – Rising from the shores of Cliffwood Beach with the emotional weight of a movie soundtrack and the soul of a classic, Pseudo The Beatguy returns alongside genre-shifting artist STRANGR with their gripping new single, “Heartbreak Hotel.” A compelling blend of alternative rap and rock ballad nostalgia, the track tells the aching story of Jimmy and Sally—two young lovers caught in a storm of heartbreak and addiction.
“Heartbreak Hotel” is more than just a song—it’s a vivid narrative wrapped in laid-back beats, melancholy melodies, and a hook that sticks with you like a fading memory: “Heartbreak Hotel put me on the guest list…” STRANGR’s chorus floats effortlessly over Pseudo’s raw, poetic verses, painting a picture that feels both intimate and universal. The track feels like a mixtape favorite and a Sunday drive classic, bridging the emotional honesty of Mac Miller, the sonic texture of Post Malone, and even hints of Tom Petty’s timeless warmth.
Pseudo The Beatguy, known for his genre-bending production and introspective lyrics, continues to prove why he’s a name to watch. His ability to weave vulnerability into crisp soundscapes sets him apart in today’s music landscape. Having honed his craft since the age of 12, his journey—from his roots in North Carolina to his current base in New Jersey—has been marked by grit, growth, and a deep commitment to authenticity.
A graduate of Johnson & Wales University, Pseudo balances formal knowledge with lived experience.
