A Blend of Worlds: Deja Vu
One of Iknowstar67’s proudest musical achievements is his track, Deja Vu. The song, available here, captures the artist’s ability to blend alternative and underground elements seamlessly.
“This is one of my favorites that I’ve made,” Iknowstar67 says. “Something about the main vocals sounding like my alternative style I make and mixing with my underground (newer sounding) adlibs and layers. It’s kind of a blend between both worlds and super fresh on the ears.”
The track stands as a testament to his unique sound—a fresh take that resonates with both loyal fans and new listeners.
Philly Roots: A City That Shaped the Journey
Philadelphia isn’t just a backdrop for Iknowstar67; it’s an integral part of his story. His favorite memory in the city takes him back to the start of his journey. “Life landed me in places that foreshadowed my future, and I ended up floating around studios that all of the greats worked and still work in to this day,” he recalls.
At a pivotal point in his life, skipping class to hang out at these iconic studios wasn’t just rebellion—it was destiny. “It was a point in time where I naturally and instinctively chose my path and what I wanted to do with my life. I’d risk it all to live through my music.”
One of those legendary places is MilkBoy Studios, which remains close to his heart. “That’s easy—MilkBoy Studios. This is the place where I discovered my abilities and saw it in a light where I was different and could potentially take this all as far as I want. I’ve been recording there since I was 16 and still going there until this day.”
