A few weeks ago, The Chainsmokers released a follow-up single after their success with mega-hit “Closer,” featuring Halsey. This new single is entitled “All We Know,” which features Phoebe Ryan.

When I found out that their new single features Ryan, I was beyond excited. I encountered her music one day my freshman year while doing work; her mash-up of “Ignition/Do You” is beyond genius. I was immediately obsessed with her music after that. I cannot think of any other artist who can come up with such a unique mash-up. She made these two songs blend perfectly together, completely transforming each of the songs’ original respective genres and molding them into an electro-dream-pop gem. Ryan took these two songs and made them her own, breaking down certain unseen barriers in the process of doing so. Both “Ignition” and “Do You” are songs by males that contain themes and lyrics that are not typically considered “feminine,” so to speak (I am talking about “Ignition” more so than “Do You” here, but the drugs reference in “Do You” still applies to this statement). For Phoebe Ryan to take these songs and make them her own is so incredibly, well, awesome. Her mash-up contributes to the changing position of gender roles within the music scene without anyone truly realizing it, and for that I applaud Ryan to no end.

So, since then, Phoebe Ryan has clearly been on my radar, and I have been anxiously awaiting more music from her. She has released some singles since then, including “Mine,” and has an ultra-catchy song with Jaymes Young called “We Won’t.” Ryan’s unique voice makes her such an underrated artist today. I want her to achieve mass-success in the music industry, and think she really can. Ryan’s style will hopefully help her to achieve the success similar to the likes of Halsey, Melanie Martinez, etc.

Ryan’s feature on “All We Know” is a huge step for her career. The Chainsmokers's recent breakout success could help Ryan get more recognition and help her to rise to the top in her genre and in the music industry overall. It is time for her true talents to be recognized and for her true potential in the music scene to be tapped. Ryan is cool, strong, and incredibly talented; I want the rest of music-listeners to realize that and enjoy her music, too. I have a feeling this is only the beginning for her, and before anyone can blink twice, we will be seeing Phoebe Ryan’s name everywhere.

So prepare yourself for a future musical takeover that will change the music scene for the better.

Get ready for Phoebe Ryan.
