Dmillyyy, a Pasadena-born artist with a slightly nomadic spirit, brings a refreshing fusion of sounds that is as enigmatic as it is captivating. Raised by two Caribbean parents and shaped by the Y2K era, his musical roots are deeply embedded in rhythmic traditions, yet his artistry reaches far beyond them. Dmillyyy’s style blends the laid-back vibe of early 2010s cloud rap with the soulful richness of R&B and the experimental flair of auto-tune pioneers from that time. The result is a genre-bending concoction where hip hop meets smooth, soulful melodies, all while infusing a pop sensibility that adds an accessible edge. His music is a study in contrast—traditional meets unconventional, smooth meets edgy—but above all, it’s an experience that resonates on a personal level, offering something uniquely enjoyable and reflective.
His latest single, “Take It Derr,” is a prime example of his evolution as an artist. This track embraces a more classic R&B approach, fitting seamlessly into the winter season with its warmth and intimacy. It’s a love song, but not in the typical, explicit sense. Dmillyyy doesn’t need to lay it all out on the table—there’s a subtlety to his romanticism that allows the listener to experience the vulnerability of love without being overwhelmed by it. The lyrics linger in the air, leaving just enough unsaid while still getting the message across. It’s a delicate balance between keeping things playful and introspective, allowing romance to unfold in a beautiful, vulnerable way. This sense of tenderness and quiet passion is what makes “Take It Derr” such a standout track, further solidifying Dmillyyy as an artist whose music is not only relevant but timeless. His belief that everything he does will live forever—digitally, physically, and even spiritually—comes through in every note, every word, and every melody, making “Take It Derr” yet another unforgettable chapter in his journey.
