New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Susan Blond, Inc.) Renegade Foxxx, the multi-talented artist and executive, returns with an infectious track to bring 2011 to a close with a bang. "Drinkin' The Night Away" is an up tempo anthem, showcasing the joys of forgetting your troubles and getting lost in a night of partying. Since his single "
Way Down" started buzzing throughout the industry, the New Jersey native, who splits his time between Los Angeles and New York, has been attracting new fans daily, all drawn to his diverse style and universal musical appeal. Interested in blending all color lines and genres of music, Renegade's music combines Hip-Hop, Pop and Electro Dance, resulting in a global sound that moves across several formats. "Drinking The Night Away" serves as the lead track off of his forthcoming album, Head of the Operation, due in early 2012.
Renegade, who has already attracted a great deal of high powered fans in the industry, collaborating with the likes of Pitbull, Trina, E-40, Mike Jones, Mobb Deep, Petey Pablo, Mya and Bone Crusher, released two teaser singles in 2011, the smash hit "
Way Down" and the club banger "Let's Go." The songs served as a precursor to "Drinkin' The Night Away" and in an effort to give back to the fans who made him who is he is today, Foxxx launched a YouTube video contest where he awarded $10,000 to the fan who made the best remix video to "
Way Down" as well as a $20,000 contest for it's follow up single "GO!"
"I've seen enough trouble," said Renegade Foxxx. "Now I want to make happy music. Songs that make people dance, songs that make people party and songs that make people forget their troubles. The whole album is filled with fun songs and I wanted to put out "Drinkin' The Night Away" first to set the tone."
Like many coming from troubled areas, Renegade had a rough childhood, raised in a foster home and dabbled briefly in the drug trade. A short prison stint as a juvenile scared him straight and Foxxx began focusing his energy on music. A self-proclaimed Entertainer, Renegade's sole mission is to make people happy, bringing some light to a dark world. Through his music you can hear influences of soul and true music such as Blue Magic, The
Temptations and Curtis Mayfield, which when combined with modern beats produces an eclectic sound that spreads a positive message to the world's youth. Actively involved in various non-profit organizations, Renegade makes money to give it away, providing a guiding force that was missing from his upbringing.
Renegade Foxxx's "Drinkin The Night Away" is a great lead for what promises to be a classic album in Head of the Operation. Renegade also recently expanded his Still Hustlin' stable by signing eclectic superstar Joe Galaxy and is also featured on his current hit single "Bankroll."
