Floyd Fuji - Breadwinner (Single)
Virginia native Floyd Fuji reveals his summer ready new offering, Breadwinner, a vibrant alternative pop cut laiden with more than a little bit of funk. Featuring Fuji’s dreamy vocals over skyscraping production, the track is a stellar ode to ambition. Complemented by the razor sharp flows of Topaz Jones, the track is perfect for party playlists.
Born in Richmond, Virginia, and molded in its skate parks, singer-songwriter and guitarist Floyd Fuji (Kyle Thornton). Now based in Los Angeles, Thornton crafts R&B uninhibited by typical expectations of the genre, inspired by an eclectic collection of greats like the Isley Brothers, D’Angelo and Two Door Cinema Club.
“Drama,” Thornton’s first single as Floyd Fuji, landed on Spotify Fresh Finds, its plays quickly surpassed by those of his following releases. Since moving to Los Angeles he’s performed in the house band for Kanye West’s Sunday Service and also collaborated in sessions with industry leaders including Anderson .Paak and Babyface. The debut Floyd Fuji EP Black Pontiac is just beginning to define Thornton’s sound. It evokes the nostalgia of home. The crackle of a worn-in vinyl record meets a vision set firmly on the future.
