MP Smooth Brings Grown Folks Vibes with “Unk Outside Tonight”

Influenced by legendary artists such as Stevie Wonder, Bobby Blue Bland, Tank, Donnie Hathaway, and KeKe Wyatt, he crafts music that resonates deeply with listeners across generations.
His latest single, “Unk Outside Tonight”, was inspired by a real-life moment. While stopping at a store, MP Smooth noticed a sharply dressed older gentleman stepping into a sleek S550 Mercedes-Benz. The image sparked the idea for the song, with the phrase “Unk Clean, Unk Outside Tonight” coming to mind instantly.

Despite potential comparisons to the “Auntie Outside” trend, his inspiration was entirely original. With “Unk Outside Tonight”, MP Smooth aims to connect with a mature audience, celebrating style, confidence, and timeless cool. His music continues to bridge the gap between classic influences and modern storytelling, making a lasting impact on the Southern Soul and Blues scene.
