She rose to prominence with her 2019 single "Stupid" with Baby Tate, which gained viral popularity on the video-sharing platform TikTok and was certified platinum in the United States and Canada.
Ashnikko was confirmed as one of many 2023 Coachella acts in January. There’s a lot more where that came from. March 1, Ashnikko announced her Weedkiller album and subsequent Weedkiller World Tour are on the way. The news was boosted today by the release of “Worms.”
Starkly contrasting the uptempo beat she’s singing atop — and the promising months ahead of her — Ashnikko paints a very bleak, blunt picture with visceral lyricism: “The world is burning, I got worms in my brains / Gonna bleach my eyebrows, change my name / The world is burning, and I laugh at the blaze / Gonna bleach my eyebrows, change my name / Play my life like a video game / I don’t mind, I’m driving through flames.”
“Worms” arrives nearly a month after the aggressive nu-metal track “You Make Me Sick!” as the second single from Weedkiller, due out June 2.
“My bioluminescent heart is glowing,” Ashnikko said in a statement. “My post-apocalyptic fae world is here for you to journey into. My wings have been ripped out, but I’ve built them anew using Weedkiller machine parts. I am the one sent here to eliminate you, Weedkiller.”
