Clad in his iconic pink bodysuit, Pink Guy is one of the most beloved characters from the bizarrest corners of the Internet. Originated as a character on the FilthyFrankTV channel (4.8 million subscribers), Pink Guy has become the alias for all of Filthy Frank’s comedic music projects. In January 2017, he broke the music industry’s mold with his self-released Pink Season album, which soared to the top of the global Apple Music and Spotify Viral Charts upon release, even nabbing a spot on the Billboard 200 (#70).
Currently the album has tracked more than 45 million streams on Spotify, 85 million plays on YouTube, and 14 million plays on Soundcloud. His most recent release, Pink Season: The Prophecy, is an epic collaboration EP and music video that was released by 88rising and features artists Borgore, Getter, Axel Boy, and TastyTreat.
16-year-old Miami rapper, Lil Pump, just started rapping last year, and already, “D Rose,” one of his first songs ever, has gone viral, surpassing 18M plays on SoundCloud. He also just reached 1M followers on Instagram. After co-headlining the No Jumper tour with frequent collaborator Smokepurpp earlier this year, this month Lil Pump announced that he had officially inked a deal with Warner Bros. Records. With over 65M plays across his SoundCloud and cosigns from Lil Uzi Vert and XXXTentacion, Lil Pump is “one of the fastest-rising rappers in hip-hop.” (XXL)
“Pink Party” is the newest bit of brilliance produced and released by 88rising, the pioneering multimedia powerhouse and music collective led by an award-winning team of creative visionaries all over the world. 88rising is “clearly filling a void, which is a pan-Asian, East-meets-West,” (Forbes) celebrating the unique cultural landscapes of Asia and beyond.
