Kidd Skilly - Bhangra Chick - Out Now | DMP

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
“BHANGRA CHICK” ---- KIDD SKILLY

Aight, the DMP has been at it pretty hard bringing you some exlusive news from the Kidd Skilly Camp over in the US. For those of you that missed out on his flava of music, here's a quick catch-up session...

Kidd Skilly, an up and coming hip-hop artist and the latest phenomenon out of the “Motor City”, Detroit, Michigan, is on his way to greatness as he explores a new genre of music. Born and brought up in southwest Detroit and of Mexican-Indian heritage, Kidd Skilly’s cultural experiences have had strong impacts on the uniqueness of his style and flow. His love for exploring new types of music and delving deeper than the mainstream has made him what he is today; more than a rapper or even musician, but an artist on every level. Because his interests were in underground and undiscovered music while growing up, Kidd Skilly has become very devoted to creating music with a purpose. He has been inspired by artists that are not afraid to “get political” and vows to live without classification as he produces his versatile music— allowing him to be true to his name, the “Pride of the People.”

Kidd Skilly is now back with a bang with his newest release, “Bhangra Chick!” This club rocking track is the latest out of Kidd Skilly, who continues to give audiences one lyrical treat after another. Kidd Skilly truly shows his versatility and displays his myriad of global influences on this track as he rocks between English lyrics, Punjabi hooks, solid hip-hop beats, and the classic Punjabi Vaja (or harmonium). “Bhangra Chick” brings to the forefront a new and fresh South Asian experience as Kidd Skilly becomes more mature and premiers his Punjabi rap and vocal skills along side of his witty lyrics.

Through “Bhangra Chick” and its video, we get an opportunity to see the real Skilly, a mature and insightful young artist that just wants to have some fun! Skilly’s relaxed demeanor demonstrates his comfort with the artist he has become and the body of work he brings to the current music scene. In the “Bhangra Chick” music video, Skilly makes magic on camera with the Michigan State University Bhangra Dance Team and a stage-worthy cast of hip-hop dancers. The video is the perfect showcase of Kidd Skilly’s past, present, and future releases.

It begins with a hint at Skilly’s last chartbuster, “Nachna,” proceeds through “Bhangra Chick,” and ends with a teaser of Skilly’s next release “Ni Sohniye.” Kidd Skilly has proven to be one of the most promising new artists, supported by the latest hip-hop sensation, Akon, who is featured on his next release singing, “Yo Skilly! I’m in your neck of the woods now…”
