His debut single, “My Defender,” became a breakout moment, surpassing 1 million cross-platform streams in its first week and igniting rapid growth across social media, where his audience has now climbed past 1 million followers.
The response reflects more than viral momentum; it's proof that a generation is connecting with the honesty and hope in his message. That impact has reached beyond music as well. Recently, he joined Sienna Spiro in Gap's “Give Your Gift” holiday campaign, a celebration of young creatives using their talents to inspire, uplift and influence culture.
Less than a year into his rapid rise, he will release his seven-track debut EP, Something To Believe In, on Friday, July 10. With a rapidly growing social media presence and a natural gift for performing, Butts is carving out his own lane as one of the most exciting young voices in pop.
