FLY ANAKIN SHARES NEW SINGLE & VIDEO “INTREPID”

SKINEMAXXX (SIDE B) OUT JULY 28TH VIA LEX RECORDS

Fly Anakin shares a new single and music video, “Intrepid”, from the second half of his Skinemaxxx project produced by Foisey, out July 28th via Lex Records. The sly, creeping groove of Foisey’s production on the new track finds the Mutant Academy pairing in rare form, exercising years of musical chemistry on a track that could open a 90’s crime drama series. “Intrepid” feels a world away from Anakin’s previously-released single “Things Change,” featuring London-based singer-songwriter Demae, and yet, the tracks are anchored by Anakin’s meticulous raps. The single’s Noah Porter-directed visual finds Anakin installing ‘Skinemaxxx’ in a lavish hillside home and taking in the scenery.

Skinemaxxx’s opening side introduced fans to the immersive concept of the project, rooted in the nostalgia of flipping through the TV guide as a kid, catching your favorite cartoons, and stumbling onto the channels you shouldn’t be watching. Side B picks up that channel-surfing journey and maintains the quintessential tone of any Mutant Academy project, chock full of inside jokes and tongue-in-cheek skits and technically-proficient rapping with colorful production. The first installment of Skinemaxxx included singles like “Outsidigan’s Anthem,” and “Blicky Bop,” which challenged Anakin’s dexterity with a production style out of his comfort zone, showing an immersive new side to the artist that Pitchfork calls “the single best pure rapper in the scene.”
