Breakout artist Austin Millz has collaborated with the legendary Chaka Khan on his new single ‘Nobody Khan [Ain’t Nobody]’. Out now on the UK imprint, Perfect Havoc, the single has already racked up over 1 billion views thanks to the huge number of fans watching Millz produce the single as a dance mash-up online.
Originally from Harlem and now residing in Los Angeles, CA, Austin Millz is one of 2023’s most exciting artists to watch. The DJ and producer received an avalanche of followers on Instagram and TikTok as viewers tuned in to watch him tapping out new house beats on a Native Instruments Maschine Mikro MK2 to some of the best R&B, hip hop and soul tunes of all time.
Arriving on the 40th anniversary of the Chaka Khan original, Austin Millz’s modern rework is pure gold and certified by the icon herself. It’s the first Millz re-edit to receive an official release which speaks volumes for the quality at work here. Millz shows his dexterity, looping the original melody and chopping the original vocals, then wraps it all in a deep and thumping bassline that will be felt in the very soul of the listener; a truly modern reimagination of an all-time classic.
No genre is off bounds when it comes to Austin Millz’s intelligent reworks. He skilfully combines soul and dancefloor euphoria, while his real niche is the merging of hip-hop and dance music – a unique sound that led The Shade Room and Refinery 29 to highlight him as one of the pioneering names in modern, black house music. His reels have clocked over 10 billion views thanks to his larger-than-life stage presence, as witnessed by those who caught him at Coachella and Lighting In A Bottle.
