Where brazen Chicago drill meets New York’s in-your-face style, teen sensations in Chi-Town’s own Star Bandz and NYC’s Sugarhill Ddot find a irresistible balance in both striking bars and soothing melodies.
Stemming from their chart-topping collaboration “My Baby” this past year, Ddot (who we spoke with two years ago at the onset of NY drill’s new wave) and Star Bandz BOTH bring a superstar aura to the mic. Star is the freshest face out the Chi, with tracks like “Yea Yea,” “Bigger Better Badder,” “Cut Throat,” “4 Deep” and more taking her to viral acclaim.
With the release of her debut project, Estrella, this past month (Nov. 15), Star is taking her sound to new heights alongside Ddot, who also dropped his debut album, 2 Sides of the Story, in August. Mixing woozy, melancholic tones and brash street bangers, this duo is undeniable as they continue to hone their craft—individually and collectively.
In our latest OGM interview, host Hakeem Rowe chops it up with Star Bandz and Sugarhill Ddot about the success of “My Baby,” working with Veeze, PnB Rock, their latest projects and more in this Our Generation Music exclusive.
