Yung Gypsy, an indie artist hailing from Philly, displays a fierce dose of sex appeal and confidence in her new single/video "B.M.S." Produced by FranchiseBeats/Rotation Records, the track is out now on all platforms. Gypsy wastes no time delivering slick bars to depict who she is, how she moves, and what she will take. A kaleidoscope of bold and sass steer the record. Watch the video and tap in below for more on the record, her takeover, what's next, and more.
MJ: Before we
jump into your new single/video "B.M.S." let everyone know who you
are and where you're from.
Yung Gypsy: I’m a
Tri-State Gypsy from the Tri-State area. Born in South New Jersey, living in
and out of Brooklyn NY. Raised in PA. I never stay anywhere long enough for the
roots to stick. It’s a lifestyle. One of a Nomadic Traveling Artist.
MJ: At what point
in your life did you decide it was time to kick start your career? Walk us
through a brief timeline.
Yung Gypsy: Honestly
it just kind of happened! I came to Reading PA to meet up with my boy Frank
(shout out to FranchiseBeats) we were catching up and going through some of his
music catalogs (this man is a genius). Now we ran through quite a few songs he
produced but there was one he left in the tuck (untouched) he wanted me to
hear. He took a sample from one of my favorite movies and as soon as I heard
the track, I knew it was time.
MJ: Holding it down
in a male-dominated industry, tell us what sets you apart from other artists,
from looks to style, to craft, etc.
Yung Gypsy: So
first off… I feel like the ladies are taking over! The men pull the strings
behind the scenes, but the women run the show… I’m such a free spirit and a very
spiritual being at that and I like to exude and integrate that power and belief
into my craft and all of my passions. I throw in originality with a hint of the
many inspirations that came before me in many different genres to give tribute
and pay homage. Music is ever evolving, and I want to portray an image that
doesn’t put me in a box.
MJ: Let's dive
into your new single/video "B.M.S." A few impressions fall into play
while watching the video...bold, sexy, and confident. What was the push
behind the record? What are you hoping fans and new listeners/audiences will
take from it?
Yung Gypsy: So,
when I listen to a track I try not to approach it with a ready-made theme.
Although, in times where I might need to get some things off my chest or I feel
like I need to release a ball of creative energy, I’ll sit and write cappella
but when it comes to an original beat, I feel like I have to bring to its
original sound. I never know what’s about to come to my head. I like to just
let my mind wander on the beat. So, when it came to “B.M.S” I did just that and
like you said it’s giving Bold! It’s giving Audacity! It’s giving I’m here and
there’s nothing you can do about it
MJ: What other
projects or endeavors are you working on?
Yung Gypsy: I
have a few things in the tuck right now that I’m really excited about. I always
wanted to co-produce original beats and I had the privilege to accomplish that
with these next few track releases. I like the melodic, so you’ll get a taste
of that alongside some raw lyrics. You’ll hear classic sounds from the 80’s to
the early 2000’s My favs.
MJ: Is there
anything else you would like to share with the world about Yung Gypsy?
Yung Gypsy: For
those who do not know me I’ve been writing & recording music since I was 15
years old, so this is nothing new to me but definitely something true to me. Shout
Out to “Rotation Records” on this up-and-coming project and Look Out for My New
Single “Tell Nobody” ft. Jess Cannzie (End of May 2024).
