Bad Colours

Sobre

Bad Colours is the moniker of London-born, Maryland-raised, Brooklyn-based DJ, songwriter, producer, and instrumentalist Ibrahim Soliman. While his career has spanned over a decade - as both a DJ (alongside the likes of James Murphy, Mark Ronson, and Q-Tip) and producer (for Kendrick Lamar, Faith Evans, Keyshia Cole, and Rick Ross, among others) - the Bad Colours name only came into being in early 2020, with the debut LP, “PINK,” being released in February 2021 on the Brooklyn tastemaker label Bastard Jazz. By tapping into his deep network of artist friends, Ibrahim compiled a treasure-trove of vocal samples, snippets, sketches, and fresh instrumental loops into a beautiful debut record that touches on hip-hop, house, and left-field electronic, while remaining irresistibly danceable. A slew of singles throughout 2020 and 2021 included “Feelin’ Like,” featuring Jarv Dee, has become an underground hit, popping up everywhere from Best Buy ads, Hulu’s “Woke,” Most recently, “Feelin’ Like” had prominent placement in the #1 Netflix film “Spiderhead,” directed by Joseph Kosinski (“Tron: Legacy;” “Top Gun: Maverick”) and starring Chris Hemsworth, Miles Teller, and Jurnee Smollett. The breakout success of “Feelin’ Like” further led to a collaborative EP with Jarv Dee, titled “BLAKHOUSE,” which saw additional features from fellow PNW natives Shabazz Palaces (“Clouds,” featured in Hulu’s “Shoresy”) and Stas THEE Boss (“Black Skin”).
