Former Marine Shantonio is an American rapper and songwriter born in 1991, who released his debut song, “Summer Baby,” a track that exudes summer-filled vibes with an impressive mastery, blending caribbean influences with smooth Hip-Hop verses. The talented artist was inspired by all the social distancing taking place to fight the Covid-19 pandemic, leading Shantonio to create a song specifically directed at the adult crowds out there, who impatiently wait for things to get better so that they can resume their endless parties and travels. Explicit and sexual but never vulgar, Shantonio’s “Summer Baby” is the perfect track for him to introduce his art to mainstream listeners, and now that we’ve heard this fun song, we are impatiently waiting for Shanotion’s next drop.
