1am

CIV’s 1AM is unironically kind of fire—but good luck trying to explain that to anyone without getting roasted. It started as one of those TikTok audios that felt like pure brainrot, the kind of thing you hear a thousand times while scrolling at 2AM until it just embeds itself in your brain. But then I actually listened to the full track, and now it’s in my rotation for real.

The production goes way harder than it has any right to. That woozy synth in the background gives the whole thing this hazy, almost dreamlike vibe, while the drums knock just enough to keep it from floating away. It’s got that perfect mix of spacey and punchy, like something you’d hear on an old SoundCloud deep dive. And then there’s CIV—his delivery is laid-back, almost effortless, like he’s barely trying but still completely in the pocket. The hook? Stupidly catchy.

The problem is, how do you tell someone you actually bump this without sounding insane? “Yeah, that one TikTok song? No, like, actually, it kinda slaps.” It’s one of those tracks you just keep in your personal stash—throw it on during a late-night drive or when you’re chilling with friends who won’t judge you. Because let’s be real, as much as it started as a meme, 1AM is lowkey fire. But we don’t have to talk about that.
