Blackstate weaponizes EDM to call out the absurdity of the era, and the result is loud, clever, and absolutely unforgettable.

Blackstate Turns the Internet Into a Fever Dream on “#FollowMe”

Blackstate’s “#FollowMe” is a Biting Soundtrack to Digital Life. With ‘#FollowMe,’ Blackstate turns the selfie-obsessed chaos of social media into a clever, adrenaline-fueled musical satire.

“#FollowMe” is absurd, sharp, and wildly fun – a perfect distillation of Blackstate’s experimental ethos and Tasevski-Fitz’s uncanny ability to blend social critique with infectious, high-energy melodies.

A Sharp Mirror Held To Modern Identity. What makes Blackstate compelling is its refusal to moralize. The track speaks to a generation increasingly disconnected from physical reality, not out of malice, but out of habit. It reflects a culture chasing visibility while slowly dissolving its inner life.

The video for “#FollowMe” captures Blackstate at its most pointed and self-aware. Rather than offering a subtle critique of social media culture, the project leans directly into parody, exaggeration, and discomfort. The song and its visuals examine a reality most people recognize but rarely want to confront: a world where validation is measured in clicks, identity is filtered through screens, and presence is replaced by performance. Tasevski-Fitz does not position himself above the spectacle. Instead, he steps fully inside it, embodying the influencer archetype with unsettling precision.

“#FollowMe” fits like a glove in Blackstate’s canon – a biting, delightful parody wrapped up in the refrain of a generation pixelated and digitized into oblivion.

Though the subject matter is equal parts cringe-inducing and spine-chilling, Tasevski-Fitz’s buoyant melody feels like stepping into a high-intensity video game, that split second when the enemies are just around the corner and adrenaline completely takes over.

An unapologetic stab. Fitz reveals just how much of an absurd circus it’s all become.

With a buoyant melody that almost as if we are stepping inside a high energy video game, ‘#FollowMe’ sees Tasevski-Fitz get straight into the headspace of those “losing it and losing out”. It’s a delightfully biting parody, all wrapped up in a package of a generation that’s been pixelated and digitised beyond all recognition.

Playful and quirky, the single is both kinetically rewarding and lyrically observant, a compelling counterpoint to an otherwise boring and uniform musical landscape

Certainly one of the best and most unique offerings we have heard in the past few months, the record feels kinetic and lighthearted, a bright nugget of dry electronica with a hidden melancholic counterpoint. You see, Blackstate utilises a seemingly inoffensive piece to then embark on a compelling critique of the current social media landscape, a space where people often lose themselves in a fictitious reality, seeking approval from others with no real reason for doing so.

Punk roots dressed in dancing grooves!
Fitz holds up a brutal mirror to our screen-addicted reality, turning influencer culture into a buoyant, high-intensity electronic punk anthem that feels like stepping into a video game right before all hell breaks loose. It’s biting, it’s playful, and it hits way too close to home – capturing those clout-chasers more concerned with the perfect selfie than actual human connection.

The song also fits naturally into what Blackstate has been building. This project has always thrived on contradictions. Catchy melodies wrapped around uncomfortable truths. Humor that curdles into unease. A punk ethos repackaged in electronic form. #FollowMe doesn’t feel like an experiment or a gimmick. It feels like the next logical step for someone who refuses to play it safe.

This song brings about the image of someone desperate for internet fandom (brought to life via the music video) and makes us reflect on social media’s role in modern society. Fitz nailed it with his BLACKSTATE project here, creating a catchy song reflecting the true nature of the digital age.

BLACKSTATE turns a mirror to society revealing the dangerous nature of “follow culture.”

“#FollowMe” stands as a high-quality release that succeeds on technical, aesthetic, and conceptual fronts. as a statement, it offers a mirror to a generation increasingly pixelated and performative.

The video does not simply mock its subjects; it exposes the labor and absurdity behind the spectacle, pulling back the curtain on a media circus that many recognize but rarely question.
