Posted by Mykki Blanco has shared their new single ‘Free Ride’.
The stunning multi-hyphenate truly sits outside of genre lines, embodying a free-flowing essence of creativity.
Signing to Transgressive, Mykki opens a new chapter in their work with a bold release.
Out now, ‘Free Ride’ looks back to their childhood, recalling times spent with their mother, looking at the Southern landscape and diving into imaginative realms.
Co-produced alongside FaltyDL and Hudson Mohawke, Mykki says of the release…
“Some of the most intimate moments and conversations I have ever shared were with my mother on long drives in the Southern countryside when I was a teenager. The music that soundtracked these memories on our daily journeys was the stuff of my mother’s generation.”
“I would find myself daydreaming, reflecting and envisioning the kind of life I would like to create for myself. These memories and the music of Luther Vandross were the first inspirations behind the creation of my new song ‘Free Ride’.”
