BRIT Award-nominated singer/songwriter Artemas (@artemas___) closes out an incredible year with the exciting surprise release of his new single “time alone w u.” Artemas leans fully into his role of lover-boy on this hypnotizingly catchy alt-pop single, continuing his powerful run post-LOVERCORE.
Artemas – “time alone w u” (official lyric video)
“time alone w u” follows recent standalone singles “before we say goodbye,” which came out earlier this month, and “you and i could never be friends,” which came out in late November, both of which gained instant, record-breaking engagement upon their spontaneous drops. Capping it off, Artemas graces the December cover of BASIC Magazine, which came out last week.
This release caps a standout year for Artemas, marked by major career milestones. His global hit “i like the way you kiss me” has officially earned a RIAA 3× Platinum certification, while “if you think i’m pretty” is now RIAA Platinum.
Artemas’ momentum continues into 2026 with LOVERCORE On Tour, where he will return to the stage beginning February 3rd in London before continuing across all major cities in North America. Buy tickets from SubmitHub.com and artem.as/#live to see Artemas perform live.

Artemas’ sound is a movement. The Oxfordshire, England native broke through in 2024 with viral hit “I like the way you kiss me,” a Top 15 hit that has accrued 1.3 billion streams. He has self-released two mixtapes so far, with a third, LOVERCORE, on the way. With LOVERCORE, Artemas aims to further cement his place in the pop stratosphere, defining his sound with the mixtape’s own title.

Led by single pack “eat me alive” / “u don’t have to tell me,” it’s clear what the phrase “lovercore” means to him: dark, sexy synthpop that captures all facets of yearning, desire, and heartbreak. As his star ascends, Artemas has been gaining critical acclaim as well as a passionate fanbase, earning a BRIT Award nomination and 3.4 billion global streams.
