Mykki Blanco's 'Pink Diamond Bezel' is my Tuesday soundtrack

The vibes are really real when it comes to Mykki Blanco. The hitmaker comes through clutch with the new ‘Pink Diamond Bezel’ and from the production through the wordplay, it’s all fun and turn up goals.

Mykki Blanco’s Pink Diamond Bezel is all types of fun

The sounds only intensify the deeper you get into the anthem and stay fun from start through finish. It’s all leading up to a major October rollout.

On October 14Mykki Blanco will release their new album, Stay Close To Music, via Transgressive. Adventurous and expansive, it shatters any previously held assumptions about Mykki’s artistry, leaving them free to define their sound for themselves. Today they share a new taste of the LP via “Pink Diamond Bezel” which, like the rest of the LP, was created with producer FaltyDL. Mykki shares: 

I am always hoping to create a new alchemy for my sound and for my entire entire career I have been experimenting with how far I can push rap - from the production to the musical choices to the inspirations.  Much of my new album and last year's “Broken Hearts & Beauty Sleep” is a departure from anything I had done in the past and I hadn’t really made a hip-hop track in years when I wrote ‘Pink Diamond Bezel.’  The song feels as if it’s the love child of Pharrell Williams and The Neptunes as much as Jack White. 

When I think about the vibe of ‘Pink Diamond Bezel’ I imagine a stretch limousine riding through snow capped mountains, drinking Kahula and cream with a group of friends in cashmere sweaters, very après-ski- then out of nowhere a shaman appears in the middle of the road, the car halts - a spell is cast, the road catches fire, and we’re forced to kneel in supplication to the forces of nature!

I had fun creating this song, it’s a flirtation, it’s sexy and thumping and the second half is pure psychedelic rock chaos.
