FROM THE ALBUM CHAMPAGNE & PANTIES RELEASED 2-14-13 FROM SERIOUS KNOCK ENTERTAINMENT PREVIEW HERE:
Our friend YNOT heard on several projects with Circa 94 Beats including our upcoming “Champagne & Panties” has just dropped the video to the single “Candy” from the just released mixtape DJ Wally Sparks Presents…..Antonio Robinson aka YNOT – Lady Killa
DJ Wally Sparks says:
“I am proud to present this project from my good friend Antonio Robinson aka YNOT titled “Lady Killa”. YNOT’s music is what I like to call Electro Trunk Funk. It’s heavily influenced by Rick James, Cameo and Prince and mixed together with sounds of 80’s new wave and hard Southern rap production. “Lady Killa” is collection of strikingly personal songs all written and produced solely by YNOT and he also played all the instruments!
In addition to his many talents as a musician and producer YNOT is an accomplished tattoo artist and shop owner whose clientele includes Chris Brown, Yelawolf, Jazze Pha, Big K.R.I.T. and many others. If you’re in the Atlanta area stop by Inkorporated Tattoo get some fresh ink. 277 Roswell Street NE Marietta, GA 30060.”
