Star Bandz Drops New Single & Video “DIE”
Breakout Chicago rising artist Star Bandz unveils her new no nonsense single, “DIE” out now on Priority Records/Capitol Records. The track showcases the teenage phenomenon’s bold attitude of her willing and unafraid character that continues to underscore her rapid ascent in the rap scene.
The music video for “DIE” is the embodiment of Star Bandz’s youthful confidence as the music video follows her through a night in New York on her terms: a quick stop for a chopped cheese, her luxury black-SUV laps through Times Square for an epic night out.
The visual expressions directed by Haitian Picasso reinforces her status as an artist to watch coming out of Chicago’s drill scene.
The single and music video follow her previous release, “NAW YEAH FR” as “DIE” arrives during a landmark year for the 17 year-old artist. Star Bandz was recently included in Complex’s “13 Best Teenage Rappers Right Now” list and was also included in their 25 Rappers To Watch in 2025 list at the beginning of the year. She made festival debut at Lollapalooza in her hometown of Chicago.

Her collaboration with Sugarhill Ddot, “My Baby,” has surpassed 27 million YouTube views and continues to grow daily, demonstrating her consistent ability to create viral moments while maintaining artistic integrity.
Star Bandz continues to represent the new generation of drill artists – blending unfiltered street narratives with mainstream appeal while inspiring countless young creators.
