OLIVER TREE
releases highly anticipated
debut album
‘UGLY IS BEAUTIFUL’
+ Broke Guinness World Records Title
for building the world’s largest working scooter
and riding it half a mile
.

On Friday Oliver Tree released his highly anticipated debut album Ugly is Beautiful. Ugly is Beautiful is the first full-length release from Gen Z’s meme-making extraordinaire Oliver Tree, who announced his early retirement in March – only to return in May with the announcement of his debut after a hacker held Oliver hostage in exchange for 1 million Instagram likes (which Oliver logged in under 24 hours).
To commemorate the release, Oliver partnered with Guinness World Records on his secret, longtime passion project of building the world’s largest scooter. On Friday, he rode the completed 20-foot-tall scooter for half a mile.
“This is something I’ve always dreamed about doing. It’s taken me most of my life,” said Oliver. “I grew up reading Guinness World Records in the library every day of middle school, so to be part of that legacy – that’s a true honor.”

On Ugly is Beautiful, Oliver Tree takes his millions of followers on an unpredictable roller coaster ride through a cracked world full of comic disaster. Ugly is Beautiful then is the product of all of Oliver’s otherworldly experiences distilled into fourteen songs – the promise of his EPs, Alien Boy and Do You Feel Me? fulfilled. “The truth is, it’s my life’s work,” Oliver says.
Ugly is Beautiful includes two RIAA certified Gold singles ‘Alien Boy’ and ‘Hurt,’ and the album features a contribution from mysterious producer Little Ricky ZR3, who lends his auto-tuned chops to the outro verse on ‘1993.’
Recent track ‘Bury Me Alive’ earned praise from Billboard and HYPEBEAST, who praised Tree’s “iconic” bowl cut, and Idolator, who dubbed the ‘Bury Me Alive’ video “certified nightmare fuel.” The “official unofficial” video for ‘Bury Me Alive’ earned over 1 million views in less than 24 hours and was in the top 10 trending videos on YouTube within that same time frame.
Ugly is Beautiful is only the beginning. Stay tuned for more from Oliver Tree.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
