Born in Jamaica and raised in New York City, ALYKXX moved to LA where he joined Salt-N-Pepa on tour, learning how to run a long-term hip-hop and dance music career. He landed in London, England, for a time, where he absorbed a more international sound. Now, for the moment, ALYKXX is in Miami, where his multi-faceted music and emotional lyricism captures the energy, seduction, and ultimate heartbreak of club life.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ALYKXX&#8217;s new club banger, VIBE&#8217; has been getting plenty of airplay on Miami&#8217;s 103.5 The Beat and is set to take over the world. ALYKXX spits out his requirements for a great night out, layered over a fat block of 808s, courtesy of producer K Quick. We&#8217;re lulled into a false sense of security in the first minute, before the song takes it up a notch with a heavier club vibe, including shrieking synths and thrumming beats. Likewise, ALYKXX takes it up a level, his bars coming out staccato style with an impressive flow.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The music video for &#8216;VIBE&#8217;, directed by Orin, keeps up the pace as well, as it follows ALYKXX as he transitions from a rum-imbibing janitor at a Brooklyn boxing gym into club god, dripping with Gucci, surrounded by followers and his Mercedes Benz. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check out the video for &#8216;VIBE&#8217; below, and find out more about ALYKXX and his music online on his official <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alykxx.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">website<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/alykxx\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@alykxx_\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@alykxx_\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">TikTok<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_98530\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5g-484zqaTQ?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=1&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;color=red&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"ALYKXX - VIBE (Official Music Video)\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/5g-484zqaTQ\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ALYKXX&#8217;s new club banger, VIBE&#8217; has been getting plenty of airplay on Miami&#8217;s 103.5 The Beat and is set to take over the world. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":85224,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"ALYKXX's new club banger, VIBE' has been getting plenty of airplay on Miami's 103.5 The Beat and is set to take over the world.
