JAKARTA - After going through a brilliant 2025 with his debut on the Billboard Hot 100, Malcolm Todd started 2026 with his new single Breathe. This work is a new chapter to continue the achievement of hundreds of millions of streams for his self-titled album and an international headline tour that was sold out,
With Todd as co-producer, the song was released alongside an official music video directed by longtime collaborator Aidan Cullen and featuring choreography by Lexee Smith, giving listeners a fresh take on the song.
At just 22 years old, Todd has quickly emerged as one of the most exciting young artists in the alternative pop genre, hailed by Rolling Stone as a "knockout" and "a unique new male pop star."
Released in 2025, his self-titled album, Malcolm Todd, has reached over 600 million global streams since its release, driven by the hit single "Chest Pain (I Love)," which brought Todd his first debut on the Billboard Hot 100 and has recorded over 350 million streams worldwide.
The song's reach widened in 2026 when Don Toliver prominently used its sample in his hit song, "E85," which rose to No. 15 on the Billboard Hot 100 and currently tops the Hot Rap Songs chart.
In 2025, Todd completed the sold-out Wholesome Rockstar tour, selling over 85,000 tickets in the United States before continuing on a tour abroad for concerts in London, Berlin, Paris, and Australia. Standout performances at Camp Flog Gnaw, Pitchfork Paris, Lollapalooza, and Austin City Limits have cemented Todd as one of the most exciting young vocalists in the music world, with a natural charm that is able to turn his popular songs into moments that captivate the audience.
Malcolm also performed on the night's stage, making his debut appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! For 2026, Todd has been announced to perform at the prestigious Outside Lands and Osheaga festivals.
Along the way, fan favorites like "Sweet Boy," "Earrings," and "Roommates" continue to receive widespread acclaim, with all three still in the Top 200 Spotify charts despite being released two years ago - further evidence that the songs have become iconic songs for Todd's rapidly growing fan base.
With "Breathe," Todd gives the first glimpse of what's to come.
