Unveiling his first release since debut album ‘Angel’ earlier this year, Perth-based alternative hip-hop artist Wesley Black is adding a blazing indie-rock twist to his already scorching sound with newest single ‘Better With You’.
With his blistering trap beats, pulsing electronic elements and gripping vocal delivery, Wesley Black is known for creating fire-filled, body-jerking tracks that sizzle with immovable high-octane energy.
Now, his new single ‘Better With You’ (produced by Daunt) exposes a razor-sharp edge of vulnerability in Black’s sound, showcasing his growing dynamism with a heart-aching track that expertly melds laid-back indie-pop vibes with his distinctive rap fire.
Arriving in a trance of simmering hip-hop grooves, melancholic guitar melodies and deeply hooking beats, Black’s aching yet polished vocals pair delivering intoxicating lyrical hooks and some hard-hitting bars in the second verse.
Lyrically, ‘Better With You’ sees Black at his most vulnerable, detailing his own heartache suffered at the hands of unmet love as he explores a new melancholy within his sound, stating: “‘Better With You’ is about having unconditional love for someone, who you know doesn’t need you in return. In this track, I finally allowed myself to become vulnerable in my music and my own sadness, teaming up with insanely talented producer Daunt who helped me create a prom night inspired soundscape for me to pour my heart out.”
With a growing catalogue of head-turning tracks, Wesley Black’s previous releases have seen support from Triple J, Triple J Unearthed, Tone Deaf, Pilerats, MILKY, Aus Music Scene and more.
Wesley Black’s new indie-rock flavoured single ‘Better With You’ and accompanying music video are both OUT NOW.

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.
