“You know I’m original, not your everyday typical”

In an era where urban blends into pop, it’s refreshing to hear a new sound from a distinctively new voice. East London singer and rapper, Mumzy Stranger unleashes his debut single Fly With Me on 10^th October.

Impossible to box in a specific genre, Fly With Me draws influences from dance music combined with smooth R&B vocals and a distinct dancehall flavor. It’s a sound that has already got the likes of Radio 1’s Nihal and Fearne Cotton and Choice’s The Firin Squad playing the single as well as being listed as DJ Target’s homegrown talent single of the week on Radio 1xtra. Not only has Mumzy delivered a smash-hit single but has also collborated with other artists and producers to give us a Rishi Rich Kulcha mix,  a cyantific mix, a bangla mix featuring Sh8s, an undergrime mix featuring Roly, gods gift and KID aswell as a dance mix produced by Young Archie.

The video to the highly anticpated single was shot earlier this summer in London’s Knightbridge by director Orson Nave. Speaking on the set of the video Mumzy talks us through the concept “At the beginning of the video you see me walking into this luxury house where myself and my colleagues are having a meeting but I am unable to concentrate thinking about this girl that I’ve met and from there the scene spins off into three or four different scenes relating to this girl and of course what Mumzy video wouldn’t be complete without a dance scene at the end!”

Co-written and co-produced with renowned producer and long time mentor, Rishi Rich, Mumzy Stranger has been making a name for himself on the urban and Asian underground scene over the last few years. Plaistow-born Mumzy started out on East London’s grime scene battling with other MCs before discovering the Asian club scene when he started University. Combing the two genres with his love of dancehall music, Mumzy Stranger started becoming one of the key figures on the Asian music scene. His singles One More Dance and Showgirl topped the Asian charts and the success led to collaborations with some of Bollywood’s biggest musicians.

Mumzy Stranger has had a busy few months as he prepares for his breakthrough into mainstream, he has just wrapped up a mela tour which he headlined performing to audiences of up to 60,000 people aswell as touring Canada USA and Middle East.

In between all this Mumzy has been busy in the studio finishing his debut album with Rishi which will be released in 2011. As you can expect from an artist who mixes sounds and styles, he is determined not to be pigeonholed. “I’m not an Asian doing R&B music.  I’m a soulful, R&B, bashment artist who happens to be Asian.  I don’t need to be put under any category.”

Check out a new artist by the name of Mumzy Stranger and listen to the track called One More Dance. Debut album out very soon!!!.

Mumzy Stranger is the latest pop sensation to hit the music circuit. With his debut single One More Dance, releasing on July 20^th, he springs onto the scene with an exciting new sound and distinctive urban style.

The combination of his smooth, soulful vocal style, catchy pop rhythms and clean-cut, urban look has already got industry insiders touting Mumzy to be one of the year’s hottest new artistes. Topped with his trademark hat and armed with boyish good looks, the 25-year-old is the first person of Bengali descent to create such excitement.

Signed to Tiffinbeats Records, One More Dance is produced by Rishi Rich, who has also worked with the likes of Madonna, Britney Spears and Craig David.

Born and raised in East London, as a teenager, Mumzy immersed himself into the urban garage scene that gave rise to groundbreaking musicians like Dizzee Rascal. With no support from his traditional Asian family, it was his mother who encouraged his art and helped him put together a studio in his bedroom, which was kept secret from the rest of the family.

Not only did Mumzy have to fight his family, but as one of only a few Asian MC’s, he also faced obstacles from his peers. But through sheer determination and belief in his work, he pushed through against all odds.

The turning point in his career came in 2005 when he met gifted producer Rishi Rich, who immediately recognised Mumzy’s raw talent and took him on. Tragically, it was around this time that Mumzy’s mother passed away, but knowing how much his music meant to her gave him the strength to pursue his dreams.

Today Tiffinbeats Records and Rishi Rich Productions are giving Mumzy Stranger the opportunity to project his skills to a much wider audience. Mumzy has already toured the world with Tiffinbeats, performing for sell out audiences in Dubai, Canada, Malaysia and India, which has earned him a strong underground fan-base.

Despite the travel and growing success, Mumzy still retains his East London roots and continues to live in Plaistow where he grew up. His support of the community includes being an Ambassador for Newham Council’s anti-violence campaign to prevent gun and knife crime that has been rife amongst youngsters.

Mumzy’s musical talents extend to playing the keyboard and guitar, as well as co-producing on his upcoming album.
