Pi’erre Bourne’s SossHouse Releases New Line of Merch
Pi’erre Bourne is known for his mind-bending beats, but true heads know that music isn’t the only creative discipline that he’s mastered. Today, Bourne’s label SossHouse releases a new line of merch, only the second official merch drop in the label’s history. Designed by Aj Bourne, the label’s creative director, the new collection features multiple t-shirt designs and two hoodie designs, each providing a unique take on the label’s logo–some designs take inspiration from collegiate athletics, while others use a more minimalist approach. The diverse, yet cohesive designs provide insight into Pi’erre Bourne’s creative process.
“Me and Pi’erre both love art,” says Aj Bourne. “Pi’erre draws a lot. He’ll sketch a rough idea and present it to me and we’ll work on developing the sketch into album art or a clothing design together.”
Founded in 2012 by Pi’erre Bourne, SossHouse is a boutique record label with a roster full of promising young artists, including Chavo, Sharc, Jelly, Kura, J Billz, and more. Just last week, Spartanburg, South Carolina’s J Billz made noise with “Everywhere We Go,” a Pi’erre Bourne-produced banger that The FADER named one of the 10 Songs You Need In Your Life This Week. Earlier, Detroit-born newcomer Kura connected with Pi’erre for “Hold It Up,” which has over 210k Spotify streams in just three weeks.
The two new singles by J Billz and Kura herald a massive 2022 for SossHouse, marked by a new project from Jelly expected this Spring, an upcoming collaboration between Pi’erre Bourne and Juicy J, and an upcoming tour by Pi’erre, with official dates to be announced soon.

Asian-American rappers Star2, ChinaTownRunner, and $tupid Young release the new single / video entitled “FWM”. The single precedes Star2 and ChinaTownRunner’s upcoming EP and sets the bar high with haunting cavernous beats and dark melodic flow.
Each of them affirm that they are “about money” in their separate verses and all ask listeners to “come and F*** With Me.” The music video for “FWM” captures Star2, ChinaTownRunner, and $tupid Young in a graffiti-stroked garage full of sports cars and women. Leaning into the sheer magnitude of the track itself, the visuals for “FWM” zero in on each rapper for an intense performance.
Star2 and ChinaTownRunner are preparing to embark on a summer tour with $tupid Young set to appear at multiple dates. Additionally, Star2 and ChinaTownRunner will perform on July 6th in support of the annual Ka-ren Soccer Tournament and Concert in South Dakota.
Star2 is a refugee artist from the Mae La refugee camp in Thailand. Star2’s documentary, RETURN TO KAWTHOOLEI: A Refugee Rapper’s Journey to His Homeland in Burma will be screened at the New Media Film Festival in LA on June 6th. So far, the documentary has been awarded with “Best Short Documentary” at the Malaysian Film Festival, “Best Documentary” at the Busan New Wave Short Film Festival in S. Korea, “Best Web and Media” at the IndieX Film Fest in LA, and “Exceptional Merit in Docu-drama Short & Human Spirit” at the Documentaries Without Borders Film Festival. Star2 returns to Thailand in May for his second trip.
