Multifaceted vocalist and musician, Fatherdude is entering the next chapter of his vision capturing a uniquely soulful and explosive sound that blends Pop, Electronic, R&B and Rock in his new EP Billions available now on Apple Music.
The title track was featured on NBC’s Songland (with guest artist Usher) which aired yesterday, on June 15, 2020. Fatherdude is currently working with iconic, Grammy Award-winning duo, producers, and long-time collaborators, Brasstracks on his future Summer releases.
Billions EP is a short collection about Fatherdude’s life in NYC. For this project, he leans heavily into his Rock roots while still maintaining his recognizably soulful vocals. These are 3 songs about love, location, and labor respectively.
“Billions” explores an improbable love affair in a city of millions, on a planet of billions. “Land of Denial” is the conversation we all have had with ourselves in the mirror, trying to be objective and honest about both our shortcomings and triumphs. Lastly, “Do or Die” displays the spirit and test of will in the daily grind. These songs took shape alongside the crafted production of Brooklyn-based Alge and video game soundtrack producer Konrad OldMoney (UFC 3, Cyberpunk e3 official trailer). Randy Runyon (Bilal) appears on guitar for “Billions” and Shawn Jordan is credited with all artwork and photography. It was important for Fatherdude to create a project that celebrates his ever-changing and unique sound. The songs were written and recorded in Harlem and Brooklyn, NY and Los Angeles.
