From uptown to downtown, Hollywood to the hood, O’Neal McKnight brings the party to the people. His music transcends age, race, genre, and time. Check Your Coat, O’Neal’s debut single, is a throwback to the feel-good energy of the past and a window into the sound of the future. With the help of production team, Cass & Dubs (DJ Cassidy and Dub-L), O’Neal has created a true sound of his own. Having grown up listening to a breadth of music including R&B, New Wave, and Hip Hop, O’Neal’s tracks defy category both lyrically and musically. These unique influences shine through in Check Your Coat and O’Neal’s upcoming debut album, Prom: 2088. “The prom is a party,” O’Neal explains. “It’s a time to dance, reminisce, and look ahead. The prom is a celebration of where you’ve been and where you’re going and that’s exactly what my music represents - the journey and magic of past, present, and future.” O’Neal’s journey began in Lynchburg, South Carolina where he spent his youth wowing friends and family with jaw-dropping dance moves and eye-popping outfits. Always the center of attention, the young performer attracted crowds wherever he went, earning a well-known reputation around town. There wasn’t a single school or neighborhood talent contest that O’Neal didn’t win.
