From Portland, Oregvon, MARCIN VIIVIIVII is a deeply emotive and genre-blurring force that is redefining modern hip-hop with an emo-inspired style of music that is a raw and melancholic fusion of punk, trap, and cloud rap, often drenched in heavy 808s, moody guitar riffs, and hazy lo-fi production. His voice carries a distinct, almost apathetic yet profoundly vulnerable tone, reflecting themes of heartbreak, drug use, depression, and self-destruction with an unfiltered honesty that resonates with a generation of heartbroken adolescents.
“Sukuna” is a collaborative effort by MARCIN VIIVIIVII and another emo female artist, MXRY JXNE and together, they showcase a poetic way of expressing triumph over alcohol addiction. Borrowing from emo and pop-punk aesthetics, this jam has been built around a moody guitar riff, which is its backbone, providing a delightful backdrop for the captivating vocal delivery by both artists.
MXRY JXNE sets the tone with her hauntingly alluring vocal delivery, breathing life through a hip-hop lens. MARCIN makes his scene-stealing entrance, his intricacy blending seamlessly with the raw, honest emotions the track exudes. The hooks are catchy and haunting, showcasing such a knack for crafting melancholic yet anthemic melodies that gives this jam an addictive quality.
“Sukuna” is both personal and universal—an ode to the victory that is overcoming drug addiction. With this release, both MARCIN and MXRY prove that vulnerability and raw emotion can be just as powerful as technical mastery.
“Sukuna” is a single off of the EP “Main Character Syndrome” that features 4 other brilliant jams worth having a look at.
