ARTIST BIO

From Russia to Jamaica. Washington, D.C. based hip-hop duo Fly Gypsy was formed by Russian born multi instrumentalist producer Alexei Jendayi and Jamaican born emcee Kowboy Kom. Kom and Alexei first met in a D.C. cipher, when Kom began rhyming as Alexei played guitar. The two later came together to work on an election time single, “The Ruler,” which became a viral hit during the 2008 presidential campaign, and Fly Gypsy was born.

Fly Gypsy formally launched in summer 2009 with the release of its first single “You.” The video for the song was filmed in Jamaica by award winning director Ras Kassa, critically acclaimed for his work with Sean Paul, Beenie Man, Damian Marley, and Willie Nelson. It will premiere in September 2009.

In August 2009, the duo released its much anticipated Vodka & Rum Mixtape, a pioneering record that takes Danger Mouse’s Grey Album concept a step further. Using creative production techniques, Alexei pairs Kom with Lauryn Hill, Kanye West, Nas, Busta Rhymes, Wyclef Jean, and 2Pac, leaving no doubt that Kom can shine next to the best in the business. The result is a series of groundbreaking duets over hot new beats, which themselves are notable for their diversity of influences, from Earth Wind & Fire and Jose Feliciano to The Cure and Chemical Brothers.
