Brooklyn born and Brooklyn raised, Sudxn, also known as the Yorubaddie, fuses her love for hip-hop, house and dance music with African cultural elements, her heritage a cornerstone of her sound. Growing as an artist and delivering quality sounds, the Nigerian-American raps and sings her writing, showcasing unquestionable talent.
Sudxn’s debut EP ‘THE JUICY ERA’, feels like a sultry exploration into the cross-genre signature sound that the artist embraces. Diving deep into her influences, across house, R&B and Afrobeats, Sudxn can move from vibrant to intense, always capturing an intoxicating air of romance.
‘SUDXN’S JOINT’ opens with a roaring crowd, the artist announcing the project with a captivating level of confidence, the live dynamic absorbing you into the dark house grooves that lace her vocals. ‘HOMICIDE DETECTIVE’, sparkles with Afrobeats bounce whilst ‘EXECUTIVE GINGERER’ captures the RnB-house blends of a producer like Kaytranada perfectly. ‘FREAKY FOR YOU’ dives deeper and darker, with aggressive basslines electrifying into the final title track, which ups the energy one final time with fast-paced chops and laid-back bars. The EP, put simply, is a vivid starting point to become a fan for an artist set to rise to the top.
Sudxn adds a comment on what the release means to her, “The Juicy Era was about discovering myself and falling in love with the process. Despite what my inner critics or even outside critics have to say.”
