Firing on all cylinders straight from the get go, KNYTRO’s classic hip hop vibes and electro-soul influences have him standing head and shoulders above the pack. ‘Still Standing’ (the first taster from his debut mixtape Project Haarpoon due to drop later this year) takes a hard-line and looks to the darker more ominous side of his personality; as an opening gambit it’s unstoppable. Set to play huge UK festivals this August and then work his way through the smallest, sweatiest clubs of Europe spreading the good word and building his name from the ground up; there’s no way KNYTRO’s going to stay underground for long. Signed to MTA Records (owned and founded by UK chart toppers Chase & Status who have produced amongst others for Rihanna, Rita Ora & Dizzee Rascal), KNYTRO’s classic hip hop styling is a refreshing wave in the current climate and cut with his modern influences the upcoming mixtape will undoubtedly turn heads. The brand new video for debut track Still Standing shows KNYTRO’s unique vision and the exciting off-kilter image he’s created for himself.
