More about Shunda K


This week, the UK’s legendary music paper, NME, named Shunda K’s “Here I Am To Save The World” single as one of its “10 Tracks You Need To Hear This Week” at #2 right behind Kanye West. Read about it right HERE. July 27th, 2010 is set for the release of Shunda K of Yo! Majesty’s official solo debut. The maxi-single “Here I Am To Save The World” is a collaboration with Cindy Wonderful of Scream Club. The track was co-written and produced by Chrissy Murderbot and Electrosexual and mixed by longtime Shunda K cohorts, female French DJ Flore and Christian "Duke" Quermalet.


The maxi-single also features remixes of “Here I Am To Save The World” by up and coming producers Scripts ‘N Screwz (St. Louis), Nite Club (Brooklyn), and The New Loud (Milwaukee). The single is Shunda K’s first release as part of her new partnership with Fanatic Records and will be followed up in October with another maxi-single release, “I’m Da Best” featuring Shunda K’s former Yo! Majesty bandmate, Shon B. The album versions of both tracks will appear on Shunda K’s upcoming solo debut album The Most Wanted, scheduled for release in early 2011.

Shunda K is best known as the leader of hip hop duo, Yo! Majesty (Domino Records). Named to the NME’s “cool list,” Shunda K has recently been seen collaborating with electro superstar Peaches on the track and video for the song “Billionaire” from the Peaches album I Feel Cream (XL Recordings). See the video for “Billionaire” HERE. Shunda K also appears on Flore’s cover of the legendary Gary Numan hit, “Cars” from Flore’s debut album, Raw. See the video for “Cars” HERE.
