TYYE released his new original single, “whole thing”, on August 29th, 2025, and it already feels like a defining moment in his career. Coming from Kansas City, the emerging artist collaborated with producer Braxton Medellin and mastering engineer Jackson Maddox to craft a sound that is both polished and emotionally raw. The track takes influence from major pop and R&B figures such as The Weeknd, Glass Animals, Ariana Grande, and Justin Bieber, yet still carries TYYE’s own unique identity. Unlike his earlier, more R&B driven songs, “whole thing” leans toward a pop forward sound moody yet accessible while maintaining the emotional weight that has always defined his music.

The song was created during a difficult period in TYYE’s life, following the end of a complicated relationship. That history gives the track its emotional depth. At its core, “whole thing” is about longing for love that was never fully returned, and the pain of wanting to mean more to someone who only sees you as a temporary part of their story. The production reflects these feelings through layered textures, carefully arranged beats, and a mix of melancholy tones with catchy rhythms. Working in a home studio allowed TYYE and Braxton to experiment with every detail, focusing as much on the emotions, the song evokes as on its sonic textures. The result is a track that resonates on both a personal and universal level something listeners can feel immediately.
This release also marks a turning point for TYYE. His debut album introduced him primarily as an R&B artist, but “whole thing” shows his willingness to embrace new influences and push himself creatively. The single carries a more commercial energy without losing the honesty in his lyrics. With an upcoming EP on the horizon, this track feels like the opening chapter of something bigger. Based on the “whole thing”, TYYE is not just experimenting with new sounds; he is stepping into the spotlight as one of the most promising voices to watch in the coming year.
