On Cupchairs Reacts, You Heard It Here First - Collinz | Cupchairs.com

Today on Cupchairs Reacts, I’m listening to You Heard It Here First by Collinz, a Cork-based artist whose brand new album Malien Alien just dropped on April 20th.

This track is distortion-heavy alt-rap rock with an aggressive edge, combining the raw punch of Limp Bizkit with hints of Linkin Park and Rage Against the Machine. Collinz leans hard into vocal effects—there’s clear intent behind the grit and clipping, adding to the track’s industrial, DIY attitude.

The song opens with punchy drums and an overdriven bass groove that locks in fast. Guitars come in with extra weight but stay tucked under the mix, while vocals shift between aggressive chant-raps and a short melodic intro. The structure is simple, but effective—and the guitar pitch bend and tom-heavy fills in the second verse add a nice bit of texture.

If you’re into throwback alt-rock with a street racer edge—think Need for Speed: Most Wanted energy—this one delivers that vibe.

About the Track:

You Heard It Here First is part of Collinz’s Malien Alien—a chaotic, genre-blending album full of distorted energy, rebellious vocals, and high-octane beats. It’s unapologetic, and that’s what makes it fun.
