In Too Deep is the powerful culmination of heritage, history, and hard work. This song is the first official release for City; a first-generation American whose parents hail from the Caribbean country of Trinidad & Tobago. His passion started from the 11th grade when he and his friend Michael Coppola started making music, funded their own album, and sold 4,500 units out of the trunk of their cars. Since then, his passion has been sustained by being consistent in the music industry and mastering the skills to become one of the most entertaining DJs, Hype Men, and Producers, bar-none.
Since 2008 City has been touring alongside Grammy Award-Winning Singer, Ashanti, as her DJ and Hype Man. One of these tour stops brought him to his heritage home of Trinidad & Tobago where he connected with Travis World, a local music producer who collaborated on the record, In Too Deep.
City reached out to his long-time friend and collaborator Michael Coppola who is now a part of the writing team, Vocal Junkies. The Junkies brought the pen that lit up this production with prolific lyrics and energy. The result is In Too Deep, a song that represents the deep emotions that everyone experiences at some point whether from a momentary muse or a long-term love. It describes those intense feelings that are so grand that it is almost difficult to reduce into words. Exciting disorientation, electrifying intensity, comfort without control, the loss of direction driven by enjoyable emotion and euphoria describe the essence of the song. The lyrics are set on a canvas of cultural fusion featuring warm Caribbean elements that resulted in a record that is positive, uplifting, danceable, and high energy.
