Shade Apollo Ft Adot & Drayco McCoy – Ovanight @ShadeApollo

Published

on

Shade Apollo is a promising young artist from the small town of Stanwood, WA who currently resides in Marysville, WA, about an hour north of Seattle. He started releasing music just under a year ago, showing noticeable improvements and a fantastic display of versatility with each and every track. His new song, “Ovanight”, features Adot and Drayco McCoy.

In the words of Shade Apollo: “The idea of this track in particular was basically me just daydreaming about waking up in the morning and suddenly everyone knows my name. Like if I put out a song, before going to sleep, and woke up to millions of plays and shit. The idea of that is crazy to me and this song is basically just me addressing it as a legit possibility since deep down, I know I have the talent and drive necessary to make that sort of thing happen.”

Having already worked with the likes of Chester Watson, Adot, and Drayco McCoy, he looks to continue the trend of working with well-established artists, stating that “If I like someone’s music enough to work with them, chances are you’re gonna see them on one of my tracks somewhere down the line. I try not to limit myself in regards to who I get to work with and who I think might be a good fit for a specific track and I’m very grateful to have already gotten the opportunity to work with some of my favorite artists. There’s definitely some more really big features to come so stay tuned!”

Shade Apollo plans to release his debut project, “Roller Coaster to the Moon” sometime this summer. A project that according to him, has been many years in the making.

“I started making music in like 2015 as a group I formed with two really good friends of mine. We were gonna release a collaborative project called “Aim Lunar” but we kind of had a falling out so that didn’t really work out. It was weird going from barely being able to write a full verse to then having to make full-ass songs by yourself but once I got the hang of it, that’s when I really started to take this music shit seriously. I made the decision to keep the whole ‘shoot for the moon’ concept alive but wanted to change the title to ‘Roller Coaster to the Moon’ since the project, as a whole, sort of chronicles my journey from the point that I went Han Solo (sic) with this shit, up to the hypothetical scenario where the many ups and downs I’ve experienced along the way ends with me really making a name for myself in this music shit. Basically a metaphor for all the different emotions I went through to get to where I wanna be in life. I really wanted to convey that dreams are absolutely achievable but not everything’s gonna go your way and you will definitely be tested along the way. It’s the roller coaster ride that comes with pursuing your passion and I’m hopeful that my journey will inspire others to do exactly that.”

Behind the Scenes: Deja Destinee’s Creative Process and Musical Inspiration

Published

on

The music industry is an ever-evolving landscape where artists must find their unique voice to stand out. In a detailed conversation, the grind of music and creativity were dissected with candor and passion by Shah Cypha and the multi-talented artist, Deja Destinée. They unpack the essence of Deja’s brand, her perspective on the music industry, and her multifaceted ventures beyond music.

The Genesis of a Brand: A Personal Story Through Music

The brand an artist creates is often a tapestry woven from their personal stories. For Deja Destinée, her name carries a legacy and an inspiration that fuels her artistic presence. “Deja Destiny is destiny… My first name was by my sister… Named after Tyra Banks’ character in Higher Learning… Destiny was named by my grandmother before I was born,” she recounts. This personal lineage adds depth to her music and offers her audience a piece of her narrative, creating a genuine connection that transcends the rhythms and lyrics.

In the music industry, the background behind a name often holds a significant weight, and Deja’s is intertwined deeply with her familial ties. Her music doesn’t just offer sound; it provides listeners with resonance, a shared experience that taps into the emotional fabric of the listener. This personal touch has become a beacon for her brand and her music, positioning her as an artist with a story to tell, a history to honor, and a future to shape.

Commanding the Stage: Performance as a Reflection of the Artist

A major theme from the discussion centered around Deja’s approach to performance. Stating that music comes as “first nature,” it’s evident that her on-stage persona is where she truly shines. Describing her performances, Deja says, “I give a lot of cocky energy. When I get on the stage, I usually bring my dancers, I have, you know, the flashy custom outfits… it makes them feel good, and for it to make them feel like they really that b\*\*\*h.”

This attitude exemplifies the confidence and showmanship that Deja brings to her craft, setting her apart in a crowded industry. The energy of a live performance, where the artist and audience feed off each other’s enthusiasm, is particularly crucial for Deja. Each show becomes an intimate conversation between them, a shared moment of empowerment and celebration of talent. It’s in these details that Deja’s commitment to her artistry, and her desire to elevate the music experience, shines brightest.

A Nexus of Creativity: Beyond Music

During the conversation, it became apparent that Deja is not content with being pigeonholed as just a musician. With interests in acting and entrepreneurship, such as her unique skincare line *Co-Skin*, she relays, “I do hair, I do makeup, I have my own like, skincare line doing shea butter… It’s so many things that I feel like I can tap into.”

Her tenacity to take on multiple creative endeavors showcases not only her talent but her understanding of the importance of diversification in a modern artist’s career. Deja leverages her platform in music to venture into other areas of interest, broadening her reach and solidifying her presence both in and out of the music world. This blend of artistry and enterprise spotlights a new generation of artists who are as business-minded as they are creative, indicative of the changing tides within the industry.

The Future Sounds of Success: Deja’s Continual Growth

As the conversation turned towards future prospects, Deja Destinée laid out her vision of evolving within the industry and her plans to be a game-changer. With new music on the horizon, including the engagingly titled single “ATE”, and a role in the upcoming film premiere set for June 6th at Newark Cinema, Deja’s grind is relentless.

Echoing her earlier sentiments on the significance of grinding, she reiterates, “To work and put in the work… when you don’t want to do it, put in the work then, too, because in the end, it’s gonna pay off.” It’s with this unwavering dedication and drive that Deja Destinée forges ahead, paving her path with an unshakeable belief in her art and her ability to influence the industry.

Deja’s narrative is one that is building upon the foundations of authenticity, perseverance, and an uncompromising vision for what she wants to achieve. With a solid grounding in the values instilled in her name and approach to music, the future beckons with infinite possibilities, each one an opportunity to further the imprint of Deja Destinée on the world.
