(August 14, 2026 – Los Angeles) – Even as he continues to bring his breakout debut album Weekend Rockstar to festivals and clubs on both sides of the Atlantic, U.K. phenom Feng announces his next project. The forthcoming Summer At Camp Lakepine EP is coming soon, and the lead single, “Fake Friends,” is out now. Listen HERE. Find Feng’s current tour routing below, and more info HERE.
The new music arrives amid several fresh milestones. Watch HERE. After selling out the North American leg of his Weekend Rockstar Tour, Feng launches the EU/U.K. portion on September 8. In between, he’s continued his run of riotous festival appearances, springboarding off of an acclaimed Rolling Loudperformance to conquer stages at Lyrical Lemonade Summer Smash, Germany’s Splash!, Switzerland’s Openair Frauenfeld, and Poland’s Clout, where he commanded a massive crowd that stuck it out through a storm to party with him (watch HERE).
Feng also covers HIGHSNOBIETY as part of their coveted annual music week series. The feature teases Summer At Camp Lakepine, noting that the EP “continues to pull from [diverse] sources, this time using a diary-style format to capture a specific period of time he spent in Los Angeles at the start of this year.” And after making a splash during Milan Fashion Week as part of an underground invasion that swept through the flashy Gucci runway show, the 20-year-old rising star is the new face of Vans’ “Off The Wall” campaign — Feng spoke to HYPEBEAST about it.
Amidst such wins, “Fake Friends” is even more potent. Produced by frequent collaborator Lakepine, the song mixes bright smears of synth, bursting samples, rumbling bass, and drums that pop like firecrackers to create something kaleidoscopic and driving. Within that fray, Feng delivers bittersweet sing-song bars: “They want to see you do good, but never better than them / We grew up in the same hood, we used to be best friends.”
The official “Fake Friends” music video shot by Issac Buitrago in Los Angeles during the day and night is directed by Lakepine and Feng. The video, notably edited and creative directed by Feng too,finds him wandering the city deep in his thoughts. Between Technicolor shots of Feng among traffic lights and neon signs, and walking train tracks at sunset, we see the artist on a downtown rooftop surrounded by mannequins that are set ablaze. The text of a nearby billboard slyly speaks volumes: “Turn setbacks into comebacks.”
Released in February, Weekend Rockstar is equally informed by the red hot U.K. underground scene that Feng came up in and by alternative visions of pop that have reshaped radio around the world. With genre-melting aplomb, the colorful 13-song set channels the joyous messiness of youth, held down by the artist/producer’s mellow delivery and guiding “positive punk” energy as he navigates love, ambition, and stardom. Listen HERE.
Weekend Rockstar was written, recorded, and mixed by Feng himself, with co-production by him and Bilal Hamdi. The LP was preceded by singles like “J*b” and “Cali Crazy,” which capture Feng’s recent transition from nine-to-five monotony to neon-streaked weekends. He also dropped the dreamlike video for “Firework,” a bright song that embodies the heart of the album with lyrics like, “Don’t know what’s coming for you, but I know it’s something bright / You’re like a firework, that’s about to light.”
His own career has rapidly taken off. Feng entered the year leading The FADER’s “Artists to Watch in 2026” lineup — and is a member of their current GEN F class — while hitting similar lists by Complex, Pigeons & Planes, and Ones to Watch, who wrote, “Feng’s music bleeds personality and charisma, somehow painting a picture of a young visionary who is both painstakingly polished and effortlessly brilliant.”
Feng’s also become known for his increasingly legendary throwback house parties, which have been covered in-depth by Interview Magazine, DAZED, and Pitchfork. Party with Feng on The Weekend Rockstar Tour.
