Pornhub to Exclusively Feature the World Premiere of Mykki Blanco’s Music Video for Hit Single, “Loner”
Blanco’s First-Ever Pop Single is Produced by Pornhub and Fashion Directed by Nicola Formichetti’s Brand “Nicopanda”
New York, NY (November 22, 2016) – Pornhub, the premiere destination for adult entertainment, today announced the exclusive premiere of Mykki Blanco’s music video for his first-ever pop single, “Loner.”
Featuring breakout vocalist Jean Deaux, “Loner” is a stylized exploration of love, sexuality and isolation in the digital age. The music video is produced by Pornhub, fashion directed by Nicola Formichetti’s brand “Nicopanda,” directed by New York filmmakers Anthony&Alex and features animation by Chicago artist Sam Rolfes.
“Mykki Blanco is a larger-than-life rapper, poet and performance artist whose ascension into the mainstream has been nothing short of astounding. Mykki’s music epitomizes experimentation and unpredictability, combining fierce attitude with intricate lyricism,” said Corey Price, Vice President, Pornhub. “Multi-talented and multi-faceted, Mykki is a true star and we are especially pleased to have partnered with him in the creation of his music video for Loner, now streaming on Pornhub. We encourage all of our fans to check it out and experience his flair firsthand.”
“Now more than ever, Mykki Blanco is a much-needed crossover voice in mainstream fashion and music culture,” said the video’s fashion director Nicola Formichetti. “I’ve been a longtime fan of his work and strongly felt his artistic missions aligned with what we’re doing creatively at Nicopanda. With the help of Pornhub, we’re all excited to have created a music video that pushes the boundaries in a time when boundaries are being politically and socially reinforced.”
The female alter ego of transgender rapper Michael David Quattlebaum, Mykki Blanco had been a mostly underground phenomenon until bursting onto the scene and receiving praise for his ability to seamlessly blend personality and art. The Harlem performance artist recently released his debut album, Mykki in September and is currently in the midst of a world tour.
Said Blanco on the debut of his new music video: "Loner is a song about misunderstanding - and more than misunderstanding it's a song about a universal feeling of not feeling worthy enough, not feeling good enough. We as a human race go through so much and yet rarely are able to share our pain, our compromises. People only know a party persona when it comes to Mykki Blanco, with this album and with this song I want them to know who I am on the inside."
The launch of Blanco’s single on Pornhub continues a trend for the adult entertainment company of exclusively debuting music from renowned musical artists including Waka Flocka Flame, The Gutta Twins ft. Flo Rida, Wheeler Walker Jr. and Alek Sandar.
