DC makes his otherworldly style work for him–and the ladies–on his latest record.
Quirky Brooklyn artist Dwayne Chess hits us off with his psychedelic, trip-hop single, “In Need of You.” His offbeat, unique style reminds many of the late Slick Rick, and it’s earned him the co-signs of controversial radio hosts Star n Buckwild.
I thought that “On The Back” ended up being an uptempo song so I found myself wanting to do something different. When I heard the beat to “In Need Of You” it just felt like pillow talk. All the R&B shit you want to tell somebody without coming off too moist was my mission. I make my music with the mindset of I have to love it to give it a chance with the world and this feels good to me. If there was ever a song to bend corners to with a girl in the passenger seat, then this is it…
While his eccentric vocals may not be appealing to everyone, if Ice JJ Fish can actually sell records, trust, there’s a market, and Chess makes it work on this lady-courting record.
