KennyHoopla has arrived back in 2022 with his first new single since last year's mixtape SURVIVORS GUILT. 'Dirty White Vans' is a classic slice of pop-punk emo that personifies Kenny's distinctive vocal and Travis Barker's production style.

“I wrote the addy to the party on your dirty white vans," Kenny sings on the cut, which shows off his rapping skills as well as his knack for writing a hooky melody.

Talking on the track's conception, Kenny said: “Travis and I were just in the studio, and I wanted to make some rap shit to kind of show a different side of me. Dwilly and Travis made the beat. I caught a vibe and wrote to it…I’ve had that hook on my phone for years now; I’ve just been waiting for the right beat to put it on. This one fit really well, so I recorded it and it was dope.”

Kenny has been hinting towards a more significant project this year on his Instagram.
