Magnus Ferrell Gets Cinematic with "Miss Me Vendetta"

Magnus Ferrell is stepping out with serious main character energy on his latest single, "Miss Me Vendetta."

The 21-year-old singer, who recently signed to Republic and Visva Records, is proving he's not just Will Ferrell's son, he's carving his own space in the alt-pop universe. With a background in jazz piano, a deep love for retro synths, and a creative partnership with longtime friend Gabe Yaron (plus writing credits from Ant Clemons), Magnus is blending cinematic storytelling with a moody, electronic edge that feels fully formed.

From the first note, "Miss Me Vendetta" drops you into a neon-lit fever dream. It's synthy, dramatic, and built for repeat listens, the kind of track that sounds like it belongs in a slow-motion revenge montage or the closing credits of a stylish indie thriller. Think The Weeknd’s noir-pop meets the emotional drama of early 2010s R&B, with Magnus bringing his own spin.

Vocally, he's smooth but dangerous —confident without trying too hard. And lyrically? He’s sharp, clever, and just a little venomous. Lines like "Baby, does it make you feel better? / Talk a little shhh you so clever" and "You fled the fire, dodged a bullet / But why you gotta shoot when I wasn't lookin'?" hit like coolly delivered call-outs, dripping with wounded confidence and the kind of bite that stays with you.

The track plays in that deliciously toxic space between heartbreak and revenge fantasy. It’s seductive, a little petty, and totally unforgettable. This is the soundtrack to walking away from someone who underestimated you, preferably in slow-mo, flames optional. "Lil’ miss love me never / Gotta miss me, vendetta" might just be the most poetic kiss-off we’ve heard all year.

What’s even more exciting? Magnus says this is just the start. He’s aiming to drop a new single every eight weeks, building momentum with each release. With tracks like this, we’re locked in and watching.

Magnus Ferrell might be early in his journey, but "Miss Me Vendetta" proves he knows exactly where he's going. And at SoundCheck, we're here for it.
