LISTEN HERE
THE HIP-HOP POLYMATH & SOSSHOUSE FOUNDER IS CURRENTLY PREPARING FOR COACHELLA 2023 AND WORKING ON NEXT ALBUM
Critical Praise:
“Bourne’s raps are wordplay-heavy, funneling boasts about money and fashion, flirtations with lovers, and the occasional autobiographical gem through the tried-and-true art of the metaphor.” – Pitchfork
“Pi’erre Bourne just might be on his way to a Kanye-esque crossover.” – Rolling Stone
“The Life of Pi’erre 5 reflects the lyrical and emotional growth Pi’erre has gained since dropping the last entry in 2019, while maintaining his usual high-level production.” – Billboard
The Song:
February 24, 2023 – GRAMMY® Award Winning Producer / Rapper, and SossHouse CEO, Pi’erre Bourne rewards his fans with the official release of “IG,” his first new song of 2023. First emerging as a snippet in 2021, “IG” is spoken about in hushed tones in rap fan circles, beloved for its all-encompassing atmosphere, combining thick synth pads with twinkling melodies and subsonic percussion.
Bourne cuts through his own production with taffy-like melodies, cheekily musing about his tendency to spot clout-chasing social media models wherever he goes. Now available on all platforms, “IG” is an outstanding addition to Pi’erre Bourne’s catalog of playalistic trap odysseys.

“IG” is the latest salvo in what’s shaping up to be a busy year for the SossHouse Founder and CEO. In April, Pi’erre Bourne prepares to make his desert debut at Coachella 2023. Last month, Pi’erre shared the new video for “DJ In The Car,” danceable highlight from his 2022 album Good Movie, available now HERE. The South Carolina-born artist is hard at work on the follow-up to Good Movie, dropping later this year.
The prolific Pi’erre Bourne had a busy 2022, highlighted by two full-length projects: Good Movie and Space Age Pimpin. A versatile effort released in the late summer, Good Movie demonstrates Pi’erre’s evolution as a producer and songwriter, home to highlights like “Moving Too Fast” ft. Young Nudy, the mutating situationship anthem “Love Drill,” and the percolating “Psane” ft. Don Toliver. Good Movie is available everywhere via SossHouse/Interscope Records. Released earlier in 2022, Space Age Pimpin is a collaborative project with legendary artist Juicy J. The project received critical acclaim from Pitchfork, The Fader, Stereogum, Complex, Hypebeast, UPROXX, Paste Magazine, and many more. Listen HERE.
Pi’erre Bourne has established himself as one of rap’s most inventive producers, and he flashed his behind-the-boards prowess in 2022 with his production on EA Monster, the critically acclaimed album by Young Nudy. As well as crafting beats for the likes of Playboi Carti, Lil Uzi Vert, and many others over hte years, he also dropped acclaimed solo projects The Life of Pi’erre 4 and The Life of Pi’erre 5, which was hailed as one of the “Best Albums of 2021” by NPR, Complex, Rolling Stone, and XXL. Pi’erre is the founder and CEO of his own SossHouse imprint – home to artists like Chavo and Sharc.
Stay tuned for much, much more from the superstar polymath as 2023 moves along, including his first-ever performance at Coachella. Pi’erre will kick off Coachella with a concert at The Novo in Downtown LA on Thursday, April 13th.
