Amazing artist Son of Paper is a 24-year-old rapper, singer, and songwriter from San Francisco. His smooth and melodic delivery on diverse production touches upon 2000’s R&B, the golden era, and Korean Hip-Hop. From open mic performances at Wesleyan University to hometown shows to East Coast college circuit tours, Son of Paper is quickly developing into the next Asian-American artist to watch. Son of Paper chose his artist name thoughtfully. Son of Paper is a great-grandson of a Paper Daughter, a term that describes the phenomena of ethnic Chinese that illegally immigrated to the U.S. during Chinese Exclusion (1882-1965). The one loophole to get around Chinese Exclusion and racial quotas was to purchase birth certificates of a U.S. citizen and claim the familial right to immigrate. Son of Paper chose this name to honor his maternal side’s painful and remarkable journey into the States. With the release of his newest single “MR. CHINATOWN” (feat. DRAGON OF THE WEST) he presents a booming sound that will definitely intrigue your ears. Beginning with upbeat instrumentation leading onto his and DRAGON OF THE WEST’S smooth and catchy vocals they complete the song entirely. Explaining the track a bit further it’s about No Higher Brothers appropriation, just straight Asian-American solidarity to protect their grandmas and grandpas from the anti-Asian violence that has been running rampant across the country. To the vocals and production, this single will certainly have you jamming out. Being just perfect for a late-night drive or hanging out with some friends. Go stream “MR. CHINATOWN” (feat. DRAGON OF THE WEST) and check out their discography which is filled with outstanding tracks.
