Why-S in the “Swag Mine” video

Why-S has dropped several releases this year including “John Wick” in May, and his single “Swag Mine” in June. He premiered the video for “Swag Mine” on 6ixBuzz on July 13th, and just recently saw it pass the 85K view mark. His video for “John Wick” recently passed 230K views. Why-S was also featured on a huge record a couple of years ago alongside Tallup Twinz and Burna Bandz. The Die Fire Films-directed “My Team” has been viewed more than 4.3 million times since June 2017.

The Blue Feathers Records/Vanishyah Entertainment-associated artist was also just recently featured on the 6ixBuzz compilation, NorthernSound, alongside the Tallup Twinz on “Pain.”

More information will be added as it becomes available.

Our condolences go out to Why-S’s family and friends.
