Chiddy Bang Fly High on “Air Swell” (Mixtape Listen & Download)

Even though their single "Opposite of Adults" has blown up like Mariah Carey's waistline over the past few weeks I know a lot of folks still aren't that familiar with Chiddy Bang. Made up of Nigerian born Chidera “Chiddy” Anamege and Philly born Xanphoon Jones, the duo's making some of the most innovative hip-hop in the game right now, a fact that's evident on their new mini-mixtape "Air Swell". What's the story behind the name? I'll let Chiddy themselves explain:

"'Air Swell' is a mini-mixtape that was thought up and pretty much made exclusively on flights back and forth between NYC and London (shouts to Virgin Atlantic!). We wanted to put together some music as a "thank you" to our UK fans for supporting us on the radio and iTunes out there. On 'Air Swell' we flip tracks from some of our favorite UK acts (Ellie Goulding, Hot Chip, La Roux, Kate Nash, Tinie Tempah and Gorillaz). Hopefully we turn people on to some new artists they may not be familiar with as they get their bop on."

Whether you're a long time fan or this is your first introduction, I highly recommend that you put your table is in an upright and locked position, prepare for takeoff and get read to fly high with Chiddy Bang. (I'm sorry, that was pretty corny, huh?)
