Hyperyouth (stylized in all caps) is the third studio album by American rap duo Joey Valence & Brae. It was released on August 15, 2025, through RCA Records, marking the duo's major label debut. The album features guest appearances from TiaCorine, Rebecca Black, and JPEGMafia. Hyperyouth follows the duo's 2024 album No Hands and was supported by three singles: "Wassup", "Hyperyouth" / "Live Right", and "See U Dance".

Background and recording

[edit]

Hyperyouth follows Joey Valence & Brae's second studio album, No Hands, which was released in 2024. Their previous projects were self-released, but Hyperyouth was released under RCA.[3]

Production and composition

[edit]

Joey Valence & Brae chose the songs "Hyperyouth" and "Live Right" to announce the album as they felt they represented the tone and themes of the album from different perspectives. They described "Hyperyouth" as a high-energy, sample-heavy track that celebrates artists who inspired the duo, while "Live Right" is more anthemic and deals with growing up.[4][5]

The duo have described it as an album about growing up.[6] Joey Valence listed Nurture by Porter Robinson, Shock Value by Timbaland, The E.N.D. by the Black Eyed Peas, Brat by Charli XCX, Discovery by Daft Punk, Oracular Spectacular by MGMT, Graduation and My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy by Kanye West, and Igor by Tyler, the Creator as influences on the album.[7][6]

Release and promotion

[edit]

On June 6, 2025, during JPEGMafia's performance at the Governors Ball Music Festival, Joey Valence & Brae were brought on stage and performed their then-unreleased song, "Wassup". It was later released as the lead single for the album on June 13, 2025.[8][9] On July 11, they formally announced the album, releasing the double single "Hyperyouth" / "Live Right". They also revealed a world tour set to run from September to November.[10] On August 11, the duo released the single "See U Dance" featuring Rebecca Black.[11] A deluxe edition of the album, titled Hyperyouth (Afterparty), was released on February 27, 2026.[12]
