EGG HARBOR TOWNSHIP, NEW JERSEY - “I’m an artist first with the foundation of being a rapper with the ability to speak and play the game.” SKŸ said.

While some artists prefer to start slowly by releasing one or two singles, SKŸ is poised to take the hip-hop industry by storm. His debut album is a 21-track collection of wavy vibes that blend hip hop with R&B elements. With influences of Canadian dark trap, Atlanta’s booty music, and Houston’s southern drawl, “Purple Sky” cannot be labeled.

“My music is genre-less music,” he said. “It is a culmination of everything I’ve ever heard or will hear. Every song has a different feeling and layers with hidden messages.”

In addition to being exposed to various styles of music, the New Jersey native said a brain aneurysm in 2020 changed his life’s perspective. “My life inspires me, and I believe that inspiration is everywhere at one time. If I’m ever-present in it, I am inspired by it.”

With his new outlook on life, SKŸ shares his journey with listeners on “Purple Sky.” “The sound of the album is very ethereal, and a lot of it is dark. Even the titles indicate it’s in outer space, but a person who is very in tune with himself and the sounds of the universe can feel the colorful and vibrant songs,” he explained.

Released through MYTH, “Purple Sky” is a collection of tracks for fans who stream their music. “It is beneficial to have 20 songs or more. I was not going to let a number hold me back. These are my first songs to come out, and I wanted to do it at a high level,” SKŸ said.

Setting the stage for “Purple Sky’s” high energy is “Road to the Celestial.” Metaphorically, the track offers a glimpse of what it is like to reach the sky and transforms into the person SKŸ always wanted to be.

“What I’m creating is very different sounding that is gonna grab everybody’s attention. It’s like me looking at my future self in the beginning, and that’s the sky,” he said.

A second song destined to be popular with SKŸ’s new audience is “Nocturnal Lights.” The transparent piece focuses on life’s questions due to the isolation of being different. Tapping into his past, SKŸ said growing up, he felt alone and misunderstood, much like aliens would be if they landed on earth.

“‘Nocturnal Lights’ is me asking why I am like this and can I be enough for people. Or do I just need to accept myself? My life has been about improvement and consistency and being proud of what I do,” he said. “This song is about me always trying to go higher to a different place - just like wanting to be abducted and go somewhere else.”

As SKŸ continues to define his sound and style, one thing is sure. He is not sitting on his laurels. “I’m going to experiment, push boundaries, and try to do things never been done. I gotta reach for the stars.”

Make sure to stay connected to SKŸ on all platforms for new music, videos, and social posts.
