Lance Skiiiwalker: the name may not be that familiar to some, but if you listened to any Jay Rock, ScHoolboy Q or Kendrick Lamar within the last few years or so, you’ve definitely heard him.
The voice that anchored songs such as “Money Trees Deuce” and the title track to the TDE stalwart’s 90059, Kendrick’s “untitled 04 | 08.14.2014,” and Q’s “His & Her Friend” with SZA, has now signed to Top Dawg Entertainment. Fans may have noticed that something was up when every member of TDE — from Kendrick Lamar to Dave Free — were ominously tweeting Lance simultaneously a few weeks ago.
It was reported in February that the label has signed two “John Doe” acts. Lance, a native of Chicago, IL, has been working on his formal introduction with the label, Introverted Intuition, and fans can expect that sometime in 2016.
He has also released a new single, “Speed,” which can be heard below.
And as for the second “John Doe?” The DopeHouse will just say that you’ve heard of that individual as well…
