The eclectic Brooklyn-based band, Phony Ppl, is back with a remix to the funky single, “Fkn Around”. With Meg Thee Stallion already on the single, Phony Ppl teams up with Cuppy. The pioneer of Neo-Afrobeats, Cuppy lays down some balmy and rhythmic sounds to heat up the summer.
Defying genres once again, Phony Ppl and Cuppy bring together a sonically pleasing new sound. Keeping the original lyrics, Cuppy’s hip-swaying production takes the track to higher heights. Infusing pulsating conga drums and airy flutes, the beat gives way to an infectious rhythm. With an energized supporting verse from Meg Thee Stallion, the feel-good cut just got better.
