"An artist with a clear love for Hip-Hop and life, she represents her own style of musical poetry. Between her radio friendly lyrical delivery and vocal talents, she tends to give you her all as the passion resonates through the speakers." - 24hourhiphop.com. End Quote

(1888PressRelease) November 18, 2013 - Miami, FL - Diverse Pop/Hip Hop artist Carmen Skyy made a mark in the music world with the release of her highly praised mixtape, "Backstage," earlier this year. Now, the songwriter, poet and radio personality is back with the much anticipated release of her new single, "I Dream About You."

Keeping true to form with exceptional lyrical flow and eclectic beats, "I Dream About You" combines both Pop and Hip Hop and expresses the freedom to love. Powerfully opening like a hit Pop anthem, the song immediately exudes high energy and vibrance. It then seamlessly transitions into Hip Hop elements, creating a cohesive, catchy song that is sure to have listeners singing along. Carmen wrote both the lyrics and music for "I Dream About You" and calls it "light, fun and inspirational."

Born to a Haitian father and a Venezuelan mother, Carmen's cultural diversity is a critical element in the music she creates. On "I Dream About You," one can hear touches of Spanish (her first language) in the song and the Latin community has warmly embraced both her music and persona. Perhaps it is this diversity that helps Carmen stand out from the pack of female Hip Hop artists today, but she also sets herself apart with the unique use of brilliantly poetic lyrics, undeniable passionate vocal delivery and uncommon rhythmic components.

Carmen cites wide-ranging musical influences such as Michael Jackson, Lauryn Hill and John Mayer, which certainly show through in her songwriting and pop sensibilities. And while her sound is clearly her own, fans of artists like Pitbull and Ke$ha will definitely appreciate her music. Her songs have been played various radio stations, including 107.1 FM in Ft.Pierce, FL, Launch Radio and on the syndicated program, Under the Radar. In addition, she has had music placed on soundtracks and media including the film "Brother's Gonna Work It Out," MTV's "The Real World," and a "Starburst Fruit Chews" radio commercial.

Set to hit the road for a multi-city tour, Carmen hopes to bring inspiration and the spirit of diversity to her fans. Of "I Dream About You" she says, "regardless of your goal, whether it be who you'd like to be in life, who you'd like to be with, or what kind of life do you want to live, it takes work and obstacles will come and people will doubt you and fail you ...but as long as you believe in yourself and do what it takes to complete your dream nothing can stop you. All dreams are meant to be, it's just up to the person having the dream if it will happen or not."

"I Dream About You" was produced by Don Jarvis, whose credits include work on hit shows like Jimmy Kimmel Live, Buckwild and The Real World, and with artists such as Roscoe Dash and Wale. The single is available now on ITunes at: https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/i-dream-about-you/id726684520?i=726684650&ign-mpt=uo%3D4.
