"I don’t really try and aim for my songs to have a certain definition or feeling. I like to keep it natural," said SKYXXX. "So the best way to explain what 'Chicken Dinner' means is... that’s me feeling like 'Damn Party Favor wants to work with me to make a party turn up song?! I have to kill it…'”
“These two records came about in such an organic way," shared Party Favor. "When SKYXXX walked in the studio, we immediately hit it off. We made 'Chicken Dinner' first. I looped the beat and he just kept freestyling for about 10 minutes straight. After I pieced together the song, I realized there were a few good lines I loved that never got used towards the end where he was going buck wild and I turned that into a completely separate song. I love high energy things and I love how the energy comes through in both of these records! Hope you dig.”

ABOUT SKYXXX Dropping infectious rhymes and flaunting fashion-forward fatigues, SKYXXX pushes a punchy new paradigm for hip-hop on his debut for Warner Records. Of Dominican descent, the New York-born and Orlando-based rapper went from corner battle rapping as a kid to earning early viral success with “Bangk” in 2013. A string of independent solo projects followed, including the And Then The Moon Fell and the Sixxxty EP. 2018 saw him turn up on Hellbound Radio, which Elevator proclaimed, “a captivating composition from the enigmatic young MC as he continues to elevate his sound.” In 2019, the momentum ramped up further with a deal from Warner Records and high-profile collaborations such as Slushii’s “Run Up The Block.” SKYXXX makes his formal debut with the incendiary and irresistible single “Hotboy.” Over a sparse beat, he vaults from gruff and nimble verses into the hypnotic hook. Fusing timeless bars and 21st century swagger, SKYXXX ultimately builds what he calls “the bridge of classic rap and the new era.”
ABOUT PARTY FAVOR With one of the most diverse and accomplished resumes in the industry as a DJ, producer and boundary-pushing artist, Party Favor is a real force of nature. His music has helped the festival trap and twerk scenes rise to sudden popularity in dance music, frequently blurring the boundaries between electronic, rap, reggae and many other genres. In addition to multiple hit singles and a debut EP (feat. Gucci Mane, Rich the Kid, Dillon Francis) that reached #2 on iTunes Dance, #1 on US Dance Radio and #7 on Billboard's Dance radio charts, the LA-based artist has worked as a producer for some of the biggest names in the industry, such as Lil Jon, 2 Chainz, Migos and A$AP Ferg. 2019 thus far has been a massive transformation for Party Favor with the release of his debut full-length “Layers” featuring a stacked roster of highly-acclaimed collaborators, including A$AP Ferg, Juicy J, Lil Baby, GTA, Rich The Kid and more. With over 20 million streams across platforms, the project has helped solidify Party Favor’s artistry as well as his incredible versatility as a producer, while revealing a deeply personal story at the same time. The “Layers (Remixed)” package furthered that story with contributions from friends and collaborators like TroyBoi, YehMe2, Wuki, BIJOU, Blanke and more, and he’s already continued his path forward with recent singles “Gasoline” and “Chicken Dinner / HOOT.”
Fans can catch the ever-present producer at his residencies at Hakkasan Group (Hakkasan, Omnia, Wet Republic) in Vegas, E11even in Miami and Premier Nightclub in Atlantic City this year. Party Favor is moving ever forward, and shedding all of these "Layers" was just the beginning.
