Swingfly
Save The Trees

unsigned/Bonnier Publishing (Sweden)

WE SAY

Keep an eye on Teddybears Sthlm. Featured here some time ago, we've since been asked about them by Jive in New York (who were thinking of asking them to work with Britney), and they've been picked up by Atlantic in the US. Swingfly is thus far best known for rapping on Teddybears' Scandinavian hit Hey Boy, and the the group Blacknuss. Henceforth he will best be known for this effortlessly cool and original yet listenable bit of pop rap. He's originally from New York but went to Stockholm to collaborate and has been there ever since. His publisher Charlie Dilks will be at In The City - get in touch on the details above.
