A 2024 cut with Bailey Zimmerman (“Holding On”) also put him on the map as a songwriter. All the while, Whiten’s solo writes continued to pick up steam. His poignant debut single “Breakin’ My Heart” and massive follow-up, “Rollin’ Stone” (31 million+ cumulative streams since its October 2024 release), highlight his prowess as a songwriter.
