STNDRD

The seamless fusion of soulful melodies and hard-hitting rap delivery are just a few aspects of STNDRD’s rapid rise to acclaim in their first 18 months of releasing music.

Born and raised in Otara, the 3-man group carry Samoa and South Auckland in everything they create.
STNDRD first took the music scene by storm with their 2019 release of My USO which was closely followed by the viral My Uso (Remix) that featured fellow Polynesian artists BIGGs 685, Masi Rooc, Ron Moala and Lisi. The My Uso (Remix) quickly became an anthem for Polynesians worldwide and has since amassed over 3.3 million streams on Spotify and over 5 million views on YouTube with many artists and fans alike dubbing the hit single a “timeless classic”, and rightly so. They then began 2021 with a bang, collaborating with HP Boyz’ member HP ONIT on hit single TG. Since its release 2 months ago, TG has gained over 280k Spotify streams and over 80k views on YouTube and earned STNDRD their first Spotify Editorial Playlist cover on the playlist Local Hype (120k+ followers).

With their first 18 months behind them, STNDRD now look to challenge themselves as musicians and artists as they explore different sounds and progress in their creative journey. Not ones to just settle or be complacent in their craft, you can guarantee that STNDRD’s next project will take it to the next level with the production and development of their debut album under way.
