Orphan Prodigy (@orphanprodigy) - "Traitor" (Video)

Orphan Prodigy is a multi-instrumentalist and songwriter from Queens, NY. After spending nearly two decades as frontman for an alternative rock band, Ian Keller decided to branch off in the Fall of 2019 to begin studying music production and engineering. However, it wasn't long after he was introduced to digital audio workstations that he found his way back to writing songs, and subsequently began work on what would become Orphan Prodigy's debut album. Having found his musical roots in early 90's and 2000's alternative rock and metal, Keller had always composed his music digitally and alone, allowing him to explore musical horizons organically, outside the confines of a conventional band, eventually finding more influences in electronic dance, house and trance music. Orphan Prodigy's debut album, Medication For A Modern World, is the result of that musical hybrid, pushing the boundaries of rock music, filling every sonic space possible within each composition, and evolving the genre, bringing it into the future. Medication for a Modern World is the sound of rock music in 2025. With a focused musical vision, founded in punk rock energy, Orphan Prodigy harnesses the anxieties and concerns of our time and turns them into a soundtrack for the modern era. In 2025, Keller began touring virtually and in-person with Ray Dreamer (Bass), Allen Tavel (Drums), and Danielle Hope (Sampling). “Traitor” operates on multiple levels simultaneously, much like the complex emotional reality it seeks to capture. On the surface, it’s an immediately accessible dance-rock hybrid that marries the early aggression of The Offspring with contemporary electronic sensibilities. Dig deeper, and you discover a meditation on rejection that feels both deeply personal and universally resonant. Ian Keller, the creative force behind Orphan Prodigy, brings a lifetime of experience with abandonment to the track. Adopted and raised by two gay parents, Keller’s relationship with rejection began early and has remained a constant thread throughout his life. “I used to think this song was just about a toxic relationship,” he reflects. “But the more I lived with it, the more I realized it was about rejection itself—something that has followed me throughout life.” This revelation transforms “Traitor” from a simple breakup anthem into something far more complex—a sonic exploration of how rejection shapes us across romantic, professional, and familial contexts. The genius lies in how Keller channels these heavy themes through an undeniably danceable production, creating a tension that mirrors the contradictory nature of processing pain. Drawing inspiration from Rene Magritte and employing a Bonnie-and-Clyde-style narrative structure, the video transforms the concept of betrayal into something cinematic and dreamlike. “We even included a little Magritte homage before the first verse,” Keller explains. “It just felt right—dreamlike, strange, emotional.” This attention to visual detail speaks to Orphan Prodigy’s commitment to creating a complete artistic experience rather than simply releasing songs.
