It’s been quite a summer for one of our winners of the 2024 Road to the Giveback. We haven’t seen much of him since he was on Monday Night Rawrr back at our first studio. He cohosted a few episodes of Welcome to the Rawrrzone, but the multi-talented singer had slipped under our radar for the last few years. In 2024, he announced that not only would he be ghostwriting and helping independent artists, but he also decided to grace the stage again with new material, marking the beginning of a new chapter for this rising young artist.

“Temperature,” the debut single from the Brownsville native, is a declaration of the heat Banton will bring this summer. Kicking off his run with his love of dancehall, the young artist had us dancing in our seats during his Road to the Giveback performance. On the first listen, the melody takes us back to the late ’90s and early ’00s, reminiscent of Tanto Metro and Devante when parties blasted “Everyone Falls In Love Sometimes.” As for his sound, we hear a mature version of his former counterpart Lex Banton, infused with his real-life persona Joshua, the music lover who understands the game and what a hit song sounds like. His voice flows smoothly with the beat, and you don’t hear the pressure in his voice like in songs such as “Legendary” and his past collective group music.

We see this young talent going places this summer, and 2024 is shaping up to be his year.

Temperature is set to drop August 2nd

His long-awaited single, “Cool,” takes us back to the essence of R&B, channeling the emotions of a broken love and the longing for someone who does not want you. Everyone has that one person it didn’t work out with, and we hope to stay friends and “cool” with them. The production behind the song truly brings the entire piece together, as the beat complements Saay’s mellow harmonies, taking you through the love-struck single.

utive produced by S-Rock, his latest track “#WeOutside” is set to become the anthem for New York’s independent scene in 2024.

Infamous Ty debuted “#WeOutside” at the Memorial Day Weekend Massacre, captivating the audience with a suspenseful intro. His ability to flip a sample and merge old-school lyricism with a drill beat is impressive. Since collaborating with the Titan of Rap, Ty has displayed newfound confidence and improved audience engagement.

The performance at the Memorial Day Weekend Massacre had everyone moving in sync with his lyrics, sliding left and right. This single has the potential to hit FM radio and beyond. The sky is the limit for Infamous Ty.
