„see, I come from the same place where stars are born / I mean I’m talking about the same streets Nas was on / back in the days on the Boulevard / my butt on the corner stone I’m posted up chillin‘ / the only girl in the cypher I was killin‘ / little tomboy was a full grown villain / it ain’t nothing changed the scenario the same / still burry these dudes in the graves they dig it / – get it“ Dynasty represents her origins. (Supadynasty)
At this side of the pond Ya Girl DY planted her roots in the zones of Jakarta records which makes her colleagues with Yarah Bravo and MC Melodee. The Queens bred MC left her home NYC for several tours and visits in Europe over the last years and built a stable crowd in Poland, the Czech Republic, germs, and France.
She released her debut longplayer „A Star In Life’s Clothing“ in 2013, really worth listening through, charming, and getting deeper on the second h_ear. Features and coop include: Talib Kwali and DJ Premier.
Productionwise I recommend more volume than a pair of earplugs and a subwoover equipped car for the finale Supadynasty: „this beat is so hard / and is about to be molested.“
Dynasty is on point with her wordplay, catching you laughing out loudly on a public transport ride or even while cleaning the floors at work. And she’s no less serious about her delivery – flow and message contain a certain pressure that is meant to push things, away or forward, or just back in place. Her subtle version of empowered womanhood is delightful as is her taste – in music, people, words, and ways.
