← Back | Musician | 2 Music Videos
Cola Boyy, whose offstage name is Matthew Urango, is a multi-talented musician hailing from Oxnard, California. Being a socially conscious artist born with spina bifida, his contributions to the industry go beyond just musical prowess. He skillfully weaves his experiences of love, politics, and disability into a blend of disco, pop, and funk that has been nothing short of a unique and fresh perspective for listeners.
His music videos are a true testament to his ability to integrate visuals and sound to tell compelling narratives. One of the standouts is the music video for 'Penny Girl', which catapults audiences back to the disco era with its blending of 70s funk and modern pop. Shot in his hometown, the sepia tones and vintage aesthetics complement the groovy tune, creating a sense of nostalgia. Meanwhile, 'Beige 70' takes a quirkier route. In it, Cola Boyy plays an extraterrestrial being navigating Earth and its peculiar customs, intermittently bursting into his energetic dance routines. Another interesting titbit about Urango? As an ardent political activist, he has a flair for incorporating his beliefs into his music, resulting in a unique fusion of disco beats and radical thinking. This has surely raised the bar for the potential of music as a tool for social change.
