19-year-old Tampa rapper Dominique Young Unique is making music that is breaking out of the ghetto and reaching out worldwide, and she’s doing it with swagger. Teaming up with producer David Alexander and recording in their studio from aged 13, she has a taste for rapid-fire raps and high-speed electro club beats. Youthful, raw and full of bite, this 19 year-old is crashing onto dancefloors with her militaristic mash-up of electro and hip-hop.

“YES, I’ve ruddy seen her. YES, I’ve ducked and dodged her richocheting shrapnel-pinging verses. And YES, I’m aware of the fact she’s underground booty-bass’ best stab at a genuine popstar.” - NME

“Her statacco rhymes serve as the track’s bedrock rhythm while the production moves quickly between percussion-only “Lip Gloss” clap to bass-driven 1-3 bop to shimmering new wave. “I’m doin’ this right,” goes one of the many hooks packed into this short little tune. Pretty much, yeah.” - Pitchfork

“With the sexy swagger of Lil Kim, the ghetto credibility of Trina and the spitting skills of Nicki Minaj, it’s impossible to ignore Tampa electro rap queen, Dominique Young Unique” - Dazed and Confused

“The young female rapper everyone is talking about.” - RWD
