BigXthaPlug and Ava Max sizzle it up with their new BURN anthem
The song is a pure commercial flex. Solid bars from X but then getting the pop feel of Ava too? Toughness.
Dallas’ multi-platinum hitmaker BigXthaPlug just dropped his latest single and music video for “BURN” featuring pop superstar, Ava Max. The fiery new track is the second official single from BigX’s highly anticipated upcoming album BETTER OVER TIME, set to release on October 30th via UnitedMasters.
“BURN,” featuring Ava Max, blends rap and pop into one dynamic record. Known for his distinct Southern voice and commanding rap style, BigXthaPlug brings his signature sound to the track, while Ava Max adds her powerful, polished pop vocals. The contrast between BigXthaPlug’s soulful delivery and Ava’s dynamic melodies creates an unexpected but natural pairing, giving the record a crossover appeal that bridges hip-hop and pop.
The music video for “Burn”, directed by BigX and his longtime collaborator Jerry Morka, brings a dark, cinematic edge to the track, placing BigX on trial after being betrayed by the very people he supported. With Ava Max by his side, the two remain unshaken as the courtroom erupts into flames and chaos begins to fill the streets. The record gives fans a taste of what's to come on BETTER OVER TIME, and follows BigX’s recent release “LITE” ft. Belly Gang Kushington which reached top 10 trending on YouTube. The new track “BURN” ft. Ava Max arrives fresh off BigX’s album announcement, which is set to feature rap and R&B heavyweights Lil Yachty, GloRilla, Loe Shimmy, Ro$ama, Belly Gang Kushington, Fridayy, BabyFace Ray, and Leon Thomas in addition to Ava Max.
BETTER OVER TIME follows BigX’s critically acclaimed, genre-blending album I Hope You’re Happy, which debuted at #7 on the Billboard 200 as the #2 Country and #2 Rap album. With over 10.7 billion global streams, multiple No. 1 records, and major awards, BigX stands as one of the most influential, genre-shifting artists of his generation. He recently covered Rolling Stone for their Future of Music issue, photographed by David LaChapelle. His latest genre-blending project, I Hope You’re Happy made chart topping success becoming the only album to ever be on both Country and Hip-Hop charts. BigX continues to showcase his ability to move seamlessly across genres and reach new audiences, setting the tone for what's to come with “BURN” featuring Ava Max.
