Penomeco’s “My Chick”: A New Sound of Artistic Freedom in 2025

Penomeco is in a rare position right now—post-label, post-crew, but somehow more expansive than ever. His latest single, “My Chick,” featuring Lil Cherry, feels like a recalibration of what artistic freedom can sound like when it isn’t forced to prove itself. It’s raw, confident, and self-contained—a mission statement disguised as a late-night ride.

This isn’t about genre exploration so much as genre erosion. There are traces of Afrobeats woven into the percussion, but they’re filtered through Penomeco’s restless instincts. The verses stretch, contract, and warp around the beat like he’s reprogramming it as he goes. It feels less like a studio cut and more like a transmission—an artist thinking out loud and turning that thought into melody.

Lil Cherry doesn’t provide a hook or a break—she provides friction. Her verse swings with Miami-born attitude and Seoul-honed edge, destabilizing any predictable rhythm the track might settle into. She’s not there to balance Penomeco out; she’s there to amplify the disruption. That’s the genius of the collaboration—it’s two artists refusing to compromise on tone, tempo, or tone of voice.

The sense of control is what makes “My Chick” so compelling. This isn’t the Penomeco we met through Fanxy Child or even the one who dropped Dry Flower through P Nation. This is an artist who knows how to carry the full weight of a song alone—and still chooses to bring other voices into the fold.

As RNSSNC TAPE takes shape, “My Chick” offers a sharp glimpse into what Penomeco is building: not a new chapter, but a whole different language.
