Known for her genre-defying artistry that seamlessly blends sultry R&B, rock energy, and a touch of swaggering funk, KendyX is not one to be boxed into a single musical category. With “Planet X,” the Chicago born, Long Beach, CA raised native continues to push the boundaries of her creative expression, soaring to new cosmic heights and inviting listeners to join her on an interstellar journey.
“Right now, my music has no restraints,” KendyX explains. “I don’t feel pressured to prove anything to anyone; I’m being artistically free. I’m going to do any genre I want and say what I want. I’m excited for people to finally get a taste of the real Kendal.”
On the track, a jazz-inspired beat sets the tone as KendyX’s robust vocals instantly captivate the listener. The song crescendos towards a climactic chorus, where KendyX extends a cosmic invitation: “I got your one-way ticket to Planet X.” Amidst the haze, a funkified guitar solo adds an extra layer of dynamic energy to the track.
“We follow a lot of trends that aren’t the best, and society is a little messed up,” KendyX observes. “It’s not great for our mental or physical health, and there’s a lot of judgment. You can’t really be yourself. So, ‘Planet X’ is this planet I made that’s free and all loving. Everyone can be themselves and everyone is valuable.”
With the release of “Planet X,” KendyX is blasting off to another stratosphere, showcasing her artistic versatility and her unwavering commitment to creative freedom. The single serves as a tantalizing preview of what’s to come from the genre-bending artist, as she continues to push the boundaries of her craft and invite listeners to join her on a journey of self-expression and freedom.
ABOUT KENDYX
Nothing can hold KendyX back. The buzzing singer, songwriter, and phenomenon harnesses unrestrained creativity to deliver diverse and dynamic anthems steeped in sultry R&B, yet spiked with rock energy and a twist of swaggering funk. Piling up millions of streams and views independently, she asserts herself as an outlier and a force of nature on a series of 2024 singles and more to come. Throughout her childhood in Chicago, her talents ran the gamut from gymnastics to cello and piano. Older sister Miriah “Ry” Renee made music as well, while dad held down guitar duties for a popular local band and wrote songs of his own. Moving to Long Beach at a young age, KendyX only continued to hone her musical abilities in the studio. In 2021, she formally introduced herself with the single “For Me.” It amassed half-a-million streams, cracked the Top 20 of the Billboard R&B Digital Song Sales Chart, and attracted Kalan.FrFr and DreamDoll for the Official Remix. Collaborating with GRAMMY® Award-winning producers Ayo N Keyz [Beyonce, Cardi B, Chris Brown] and AVB [Queen Naija], she maintained her momentum with the Misplaced EP highlighted by “Options” and “Celebrate”—which piled up north of 321K Spotify streams. During 2023, she took a step back from “music and life in general,” focusing on mental health and family. Realigning personally, she approached her artistry from a fresh perspective. She nodded to influences as diverse as Gwen Stefani, Queen, and Avril Lavigne. In the end, Kendy is leveling up on her own terms.
