Andro Astro - Vamp Candy (Official Video)

Emerging Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter/rapper Andro Astro has debuted their latest single, “Vamp Candy”. Fusing together multiple genres, the energised track boasts an infectious pop-punk melody over striking guitar riffs and hip-hop beats, transporting you to Andro’s heightened world of unapologetic living. Having already begun to amass a following, with previous releases topping 100,000 Spotify streams, the independent artist looks set to continue their rise with this latest release.

A self-identified outcast, Andro draws inspiration from a wide range of artists, such as MGK, Playboi Carti, Alkaline Trio and The 1975, to create their dynamic, genre-bending sound. Speaking more on “Vamp Candy”, Andro says, “I wrote ‘Vamp Candy’ very much enveloped in the new wave punk hip-hop energy. People are hungry for high-energy tracks that express both the discontent with the system and the joy of making it through Covid. The song is also a testament to how I’ve been feeling personally about my own identity. Lyrics like ‘half the world hate me’ speak to the negativity that non-binary/trans/gender fluid people have to deal with on a daily basis, but then I say forget about it, ‘they could never date me.’ You’re not going to be loved by everyone when you are unapologetically yourself and that’s ok – they’re not worth your time anyway.
