"Stayed Down" Video Video Link
Anytime Vanity Wyze and Sonny King collaborate, they are sure to create a hit record. Their song "I Won't Miss" became a soundtrack feature on NBA 2K and the music behind the James Harden highlight film of 2021. Now, the duo is heating up the rap scene with their track "Stayed Down," which blends Vanity Wyze's lyrical intensity with Sonny King's expert production. "Stayed Down" was featured on the soundtrack to Lizzo's 3 time Emmy Award Winning TV show, Watch Out for the Big Grrrls, which also featured Lizzo herself and stars like Cardi B, Missy Elliott, Latto, DJ Khaled, DMX, Mariah Carey, and more. The track is a breezy, feel-good, and compelling take on their grind to stardom. It's an inspiring anthem to help you stay focused on what matters most to you. The music video was shot in Charlotte, North Carolina, and features the rappers sporting the jersey of Melo Ball (of the Charlotte Hornets) in a Carolina blue Slingshot and showcasing iconic buildings like the Bank of America stadium, home of the Carolina Panthers. Let Vanity Wyze and Sonny King's inspirational track be the fuel to achieving your dreams.
