Straight from the road and charged with acoustic-driven grit, viral momentum, and a potent dose of Y2K rebellion, alternative singer-songwriter honestav (Av) has officially unleashed his sensational new single and music video: «iphone killed the mp3».

Following hot on the heels of his acclaimed sophomore album, Sweet American Boy (home to his chart-topping mgk collaboration «Crash First»), this nostalgic folk-punk anthem was penned on the road during his massive 44-date world tour and fueled by an instant viral surge across TikTok. Blending acoustic warmth with a candid cultural critique, the track dives headfirst into early-2000s nostalgia—dropping shoutouts to Jackass icon Bam Margera, Pimp My Ride, and skater culture—while quietly rebelling against modern tech obsession (even declaring right in the chorus, “I don’t wanna chat with GPT”). Shot on location in London between sold-out headlining dates at The Village Underground, the official music video captures the globe-trotting energy of an artist connecting deeply with fans who miss the simplicity of an analog childhood.

The MusicWayATX Verdict: “iphone killed the mp3” is a triumph of relatable lyricism, infectious folk-punk energy, and collective cultural memory. honestav proves he has his finger directly on the pulse of a generation.
