WHAT IT IS: In 2021, L.A.-based singer/songwriter/producer ASTN, neé Austin Sanders, went viral on TikTok for his R&B rendition of Billie Eilish’s “Happier Than Ever.” The clip garnered 4m+ views over night before hitting 56.6m+ views in two months, leading to the demand for—and release of—a full-length cover that’s generated nearly 60m Spotify streams and counting.
