Skyblew is a Nigerian rapper hailing from Alabama and North Carolina. Skyblew draws much of his inspiration from anime and amination.
Though having a repertoire in the United States, Skyblew has built a large fanbase in South Korea.
He has nine projects to date.
SkyBlew’s 2014 album UNmodern Life was inspired by the 1990’s Nickelodeon show “Hey Arnold!” and featured songs titled “The Ballad of Pigeon Man,” “Sally’s Comet” and “The Ballad of Stoop Kid.” The album artwork is also animated.
The majority of his project covers are animated with an array of vivid colors and thought-provoking illustration.
In an interview with RapZilla, Blew said:
“I don’t rap, paint the sky…blew. It’s more of a visual. When people hear my song they say they visualize it, like I painted a picture for them. That’s what I’m trying to do with my music. It’s like poetry in motion. It’s hard for you to put it in a box. Like people say, “Oh, it’s positive, it’s Christian, it’s nerdy, it’s conscious.” I don’t just do one thing. It’s a variety of sounds, a variety of styles.”
