R&B duo CVIRO & GXNXVS have returned with their new single, “Were You Down?”, out now on Red Bull Records. This marks their first release together since 2023. Fans can listen to the song here and watch the music video here.
United by their shared appreciation of 90s and early 2000s hip-hop and R&B, vocalist CVIRO and producer GXNXVS have once again showcased their ability to seamlessly blend their distinct styles on “Were You Down?”. The track honors an iconic era in music history while also modernizing it – reaching into the worlds of electronic and soul to create an energetic mix of club-ready energy with a clear nostalgic pull.
On the single CVIRO & GXNXVS shared, “”Were You Down?” is a glimpse into our next era. We wanted to take that classic R&B DNA and stretch it, applying simplicity to both the production and the lyrics/vocal performance. It’s not throwback because it makes you feel something different, it’s timeless”.
From their breakout hit “Benjamins” amassing nearly 10 million streams on Spotify, to being the first Australian artists to earn airtime on Drake’s OVO Sound Radio and Apple Music Beats1, the Gold Coast duo have been making waves in the space from the jump. Since their last collab together, they’ve appeared on global releases with UK-based R&B singer H33RA and Toronto rapper JAHKOY. You can hear CVIRO & GXNXVS on every project they touch, as they continue to champion the Y2K sound with a fresh spin.
