Artist Spotlight: Chiddy Bang

18 Feb 2010, written by Revelation 0 Comments

I just got turned on to Chiddy Bang last night by a good friend and I was instantly impressed. I’d describe them, but they seem to be the best at describing themselves: “Chiddy Bang is a four piece hip-hop/electronica outlet from Philadelphia. Currently attending their first year of college, they posses a musical maturity that is far superior to the teen-pop cliche. Chiddy Bang blends hard hitting lyricism from front man Chidera “Proto” Anamege, original electronica afro-beat and jazz influenced production from keyboardist Noah Beresin and drummer Zach Sewall, and additional production and vocals from guitarist Pat Braz.”

The song below “Opposite of Adults” samples a loop from the song “Kids” by MGMT, another great group. The crazy thing about these guys is that they are only freshmen in college. It is going to be interesting to see how they progress with musical training and as time goes on I’m sure they will evolve more as a group.

Check out the video above for the making of the video which looked like a blast, shout out to looseworld.com for shooting over the link.

There are some other songs I wanted to include but they have all been taken down on youtube for some reason. I found this site though which gives a detailed review on 5 songs of theirs you can check it here. I really enjoyed “On our Way”, and “Because”. These guys are defiantly going to blow up by the end of the year so stay tuned and remember where you heard them first. Shout out to Jelly for the tip.
