(July 8, 2024) – Fresh off of their North American tour run, Pink Siifu and Turich Benjy share a new video for "Keith Sweat," taken from their joint album It’s Too Quiet…!, released via Dynamite Hill in partnership with Equity Distribution. The new video, directed by Noah Porter, follows the duo on a hazy night in Las Vegas while on tour.


The album crystallized the electric chemistry that the duo first solidified on Siifu's on "Bussin (Cold)," the standout track from Siifu's critically acclaimed 2022 album GUMBO'!, on a full-length project. The album featured guests both old and new to Siifu's larger creative ecosphere, including Nick Hakim, WifiGawd, Vayda, VCR, Lance Skiiwalker, Big Rube, Nelson Bandela, Tyah, Kamilah Dende and more, as well as production from Tony Seltzer, Harry Fraud, Groove, Apollo Rome, HiTech, DJ Harrison, Swarvy and others.


Pink Siifu and Turich Benjy are also announcing a series of European dates in November, bringing their raucous live show overseas after their North American tour wrapped last month. Their European dates will see the duo play shows in Paris, London, Rotterdam and Berlin. Siifu will also be embarking on a select series of solo live shows before heading overseas, including a run of dates with MAVI on his Shadowbox tour. Earlier this Summer, Siifu also opened Freddie Gibbs and Madlib's Teñata anniversary show in New York at Pier 17, and he will also be opening the LA edition of the anniversary show at the Greek Theatre on October 5th.

About Pink Siifu:


Pink Siifu, who was raised between Birmingham and Cincinnati, has proven himself as a prolific artist and collaborator, with an extensive and celebrated solo catalog as well as working with artists spanning from The Avalanches and Nick Hakim, to producers like Quelle Chris and Mndsgn. Siifu's collaborative relationship with Turich Benjy continues a long run releasing full-length joint projects alongside Ahwlee (as B. Cool-Aid, Liv.e and Lord Byron (Kryptonyte), YUNGMORPHEUS (Bag Talk), Fly Anakin (FlySiifu's) and AKAI SOLO (Black Sand). As a solo artist, Siifu received universal acclaim for his 2018 breakout solo album ensley, and obliterated all expectations on his genre-defying album NEGRO, released in 2020, which the New York Times called "the most fearless album in his vast catalog of equally experimental music." He's remained a steadfast musical polymath, impossible to pin down to one genre, sound, or group of peers, instead choosing to do it all and excel, from neo-soul and R&B with B. Cool-Aid's Leather Blvd. earlier this year, serene guest vocals on tracks with The Avalanches or his noisy guest vocals on Armand Hammer's rowdy track "Trauma Mic." The FADER put it best when they described Pink Siifu as "one of the most intriguing musicians in Black music."


About Turich Benjy:


Raised in Cincinnati, Turich is no stranger to Ohio's Midwest funk & techno sound. Inspired by Bootsy Collins, Roger Troutman & Michael Jackson; Benjy refers to his own music as "trap disco." Meshing the sounds of bouncy beats with flamboyant fashion, catchy lingo & electrifying moves over fun, authentic music. Performing as a dancer professionally for 10 years before turning his talents to music production, engineering and now as an emcee. Turich Benjy's brand "At Least I'm Eating Now (ALIEN)" really represents his individuality in music and fashion.
