Rising star Hailey Houston is set to spark a blaze with her infectious new single, ‘Smoke up a Dubb‘, a vibrant Pop Hip Hop/Rap anthem. Born in the heart of KDUBBS (Kitchener, Ontario, Canada), Hailey Houston channels raw emotion and unfiltered authenticity into a track that’s equal parts playful and fierce, inviting listeners to dance, laugh, and crank up the volume.
The inspiration for Smoke up a Dubb struck during a laid-back smoke session with her friend Lisa, where laughter and cupcakes collided in a burst of creativity. As Hailey mused on buttercups and competition, the song’s catchy hook took shape, transforming a lighthearted moment into a bold, competitive vibe. Crafted in her home studio on Bandlab, the track boasts a standout baseline and striking FX that weave a melody as addictive as the beat itself. This single is a proud piece of her upcoming album, Motel, promising more of her signature sound.
Hailey Houston’s journey into music began in 2022, amidst the chaos of the COVID-19 pandemic. Facing unimaginable loss, becoming a widower three times, losing her best friend, sister, and two daughters to children’s aid birth alerts, she turned to music as a lifeline. Her sound, a fiery blend of Jazz, Blues, Pop, Alternative, and Hip Hop/Rap, draws from the soulful depths of Amy Winehouse’s low notes and the soaring highs of Ariana Grande. What sets Hailey apart is her unflinching realness; she lives her lyrics, delivering every line with raw, unapologetic truth.
Smoke up a Dubb is a solo effort, with Hailey’s singular vision shining through. The track’s mainstream beat and real-time lyrics stay true to her fan-favorite style, while its joyful energy aims to get listeners moving and memorizing every word. It’s a song about owning the moment, whether you’re rolling up or whipping up buttercups, with a competitive edge that dares others to keep up.
