Last summer, we did a feature on hip hop artist Kupid (aka Q), sharing his backstory and passion of music for you guys. Well, Kupid is back with a new music video for his track, "Who Shot Ya," feat. singer Jus J!
The chill, sexy track isn't actually about any violence at all, but really about Kupid being shot by the actual Cupid, falling for a special lady who catches his eye. The track was produced by Troyton Rami, who also directed the visual, and the track was written by Kupid and Mykul Watson, with live instruments from Angel Barrel, Marcos Mejia, and Troy Murphy. "I decided that I wanted to make a new song that had the same feel that “Hey Girl”[released in 2013] did," Kupid said of the track, wanting to I wanted to get that feel that we still in the States, but when you close your eyes you can feel and hear the Caribbean in background."
While working with Troyton and other producers for about a year and a half, Kupid actually finished another track that he first thought to make his first single of 2016. "While that song was sent off to get mixed, I sat down and talked to [Troyton] about doing a part 2 of my single "Hey Girl, which is where "Who Shot Ya" came to life," the artist said. "After we got all the items together we both knew this was going to be the single to take me to the number one spot on the Billboard [charts]."
The track will be available digitally on February 25. Check out the video below!
