The second release from her mixtape 'Stupid Pretty' which came out in September, this video features DYU exhibiting her trademark sass and charm.
Dominique Young Unique is back with her third mixtape "Stupid Pretty", a highly anticipated super charged collection featuring eight tracks that will make you want to keep it on repeat. Songs including "Hype Girl", "Life Of A Party", "Gangster Whips" and "Stupid Pretty" are deliciously hooktastic.
"Stupid Pretty" follows Dominique's previous mixtapes "Domination" and "Glamorous Touch" which have been downloaded over 90,000 times and gained over 300,000 Youtube views. Produced by her long time collaborator David Alexander, and recorded in Tampa and London, "Stupid Pretty" is a transatlantic mashup of Dominique's now signature spitfire, youthful raw songwriting and delivery and Alexander's twisted dirty neo electro beats.
Within a year of releasing her first mixtape DYU has gone from rapping in the basketball courts of her Robes Park projects to performing live in front of thousands alongside the likes of N.E.R.D, Big Boi, Die Antwoord and Gucci Mane.
Winning over huge audiences and new fans wherever she goes, Dominique debuted some of the "Stupid Pretty" tracks when she hit the road hard during the summer.
NME named her one of the ten new must see bands at Glastonbury 2011 saying 'Tampa rapper and mixtape-queen Dominique could give Beyonce' a run for her money in terms of feistiness, and her MIA-influenced garb is not to be missed.'
