Miami-Based artist Kendra Erika released her brand new single Hustler on September 22nd. Evoking the playful extravagance of the 70s and 80s, Hustler is sexy and sophisticated reminder of a time when social and sexual liberation was on the rise in America.
"Sex is power. It’s confidence. It’s empowerment. That’s what it means to be a Hustler. It’s about owning who you are and your sexuality. If they’re not my rules, I’m not going to follow them."
Producer Jimmy Greco (J.Lo, Santana, Beyonce) and cellist Dave Eggar (Coldplay, Evanescence) created a sleek and sophisticated landscape for Kendra’s silky smooth voice, including cinematic elements that reference films of the 70s and artists like Lana del Rey and Hooverphonic. The single combines high stakes drama with an unforgettable and flirtatious attitude. Kendra equates hustlers as victims of heartbreak. "Every time I wasn’t looking out for myself, I was hurt. I want a man that can handle me."
