DE’WAYNE and POORSTACY Release New Single “DIE OUT HERE”
DE’WAYNE – The American alternative rock genre-mixing musician, has released his latest single titled Die Out Here. Not alone, this time DE’WAYNE collaborated with POORSTACY. This new single was released through Hopeless Records. The song features an interesting mix of alternative pop-punk, including lo-fi vocals with upbeat electric guitar hooks.
“I honestly feel like we became so obsessed with fun and fitting in that you could lose who you were when you started out and I really don’t want any artist to feel that way. So I expressed ‘I want to go out with a smile if I can, and don’t get confused by what’s going on in life,’ says DE’WAYNE.
The music is reminiscent of the classic alternative rock that hit around the early 1990s or 2000s. The melodramatic lyrics are a stark contrast to the song’s upbeat energy, lamenting complaints from reality, as in “voice in my head, they don’t pay no rent.”
The music video for the single is a supercut of the dream fever sketch of DE’WAYNE’s narration as he rides with his friends and POORSTACY. In various scenes, DE’WAYNE seems to move to other scenes, DE’WAYNE appears in an empty warehouse where during the crescendos, he is finally swept away by a storm.
In the press release, DE’WAYNE explained the inspiration behind the new song. He said: “Don’t want to go out of the way I see heroes from time to time. Being found without love or ultimately feeling like they don’t want to meet the pressures you feel like a human. His inspiration comes after driving 1,300 miles from home to a place and going from there with more than you did at the start.”
Signed by the MDDN management team, DE’WAYNE’s new song paved the way for his breakthrough in the emo and alternative punk renaissance that took the world by storm in 2020. In addition, DE’WAYNE has just announced its North American tour titled DE’WAYNE World and will hold several festivals at once such as Sunfest, BottleRock, Gov Ball, Bonnaroo, and Lollapalooza.
DE’WAYNE’s infectious energy injects some much-needed diversity into the scene. With his upcoming tour and more music to come, DE’WAYNE is sure to deliver a new sound that drives alternative scene changes.
“Ever since I was a kid, I believed in myself,” begins DE’WAYNE. “I knew if I got the chance I could do something great.” DE’WAYNE’s music reflects an alt-pop superstar who moves with ease
through an eclectic range of styles, scenes, and genres. The result is a powerful ability to deliver dynamic tracks that saw DE’WAYNE as a superstar in the making.
“Now that I finally get the chance, I won’t stop,” DE’WAYNE promised. “I can’t take a day off because I haven’t reached that Grammy yet.” Like his heroes Kurt Cobain, Matty Healy, Iggy Pop, and Patti Smith, DE’WAYNE wanted to be a great artist. He wants number one. More importantly, “I want to be a stain on culture.”
DE’WAYNE’s first performance came at the age of 12 when she got her first lead song at her local church. “Singing in front of people, damn it, I’m horny. I’ve always felt so insecure and can never really say how I feel other than holding that mic, making people listen…” she felt visible. In addition to crash courses in rapper Houston from his father, it wasn’t long before DE’WAYNE wrote his own songs. “They’re so bad because I’ve never lived,” he explained. That changed when he moved to Los Angeles at the age of 19.

Once there, DE’WAYNE “really went to a very poor school, learning how to write songs and about where you want to put your voice in the world.”
There was a series of songs that had DE’WAYNE following exactly what had come before a series of live performances found him finding the kind of artist he wanted. “If I had stayed in Houston, I would have only been my mother’s son. I’m going to do work I don’t want to do.” Five years of searching later and now, I’m completely DE’WAYNE.”
In a post-genre world where everyone is free to do whatever they want, no one does what DE’WAYNE did. “We’re on our own path now,” he beamed.
“People either love it or they haven’t got it.” Give them time. As DE’WAYNE explains, “I wasn’t made to fit into any box. I’m not a political artist, I’m just someone who talks about what he went through. As long as I can keep writing good songs, I can talk about anything.”
DE’WAYNE is unabashedly “ambitious, damn it! I want to be big. I know I have a lot of work to do but sometimes it really feels achievable.” Authentic, rebellious, and free.
