R&B recording artist Vance Hardcore has officially released his new EP titled Rush, a project that blends melodic vocals, high-energy production, and compelling collaborations.
The EP features production from Shawn Anthony and Russell Thomas and includes guest appearances from OG Cuicide and iitsAD. The project was recorded between 2023 and 2025 and was created to give fans new music while Hardcore prepares for the release of his upcoming album Liquid, scheduled for summer 2026.
The title Rush was inspired by the opening track “Rush Hour,” produced by Atlanta-based producer Shawn Anthony. The name represents the feeling of excitement and momentum listeners experience when they hear the music.
Originally coming from a rap background, Hardcore has spent years developing his vocal abilities and expanding his musical style into R&B. His ability to blend storytelling with melodic songwriting has become one of the defining characteristics of his sound.
The EP also showcases strong collaborations with OG Cuicide and iitsAD, whose verses add depth and energy to the project.
Outside of music, Hardcore is also building his business ventures through Hardcore Performance, a sparkling water energy drink company currently expanding throughout Louisiana.
The EP Rush is now available on all major streaming platforms.
