Bored Apes NFT Metaverse Band along with actual producers Jay Z & Beyonce by DailyCoin
Bored Apes NFT is constantly at the center of the action in the music industry, recently with Eminem & Snoop Dogg performing live in a BAYC themed show at the MTV VMAs. Now BAYC presents the first ever Bored Apes Yacht Club NFT super group. Also, the band KINGSHIP consists of 4 digital primates who can apparently play guitars and spit bars. On top of that, the NFT band is signed to a major label – Universal Music Group (AS:).
Hit-Boy & James Fauntleroy Welcome to KINGSHIP
Most importantly, the Bored Apes NFT supergroup is gearing up to release its debut album with the help of producers Chauncey “Hit-Boy” Hollis and James Fauntleroy. Hit-Boy definitely has a catalog full of hits. To illustrate, he produced Kendrick Lamar’s “Backseat Freestyle,” “XO” by Beyonce, “Niggas in Paris” by Kanye West and Jay-Z, as well as “Stronger” by Mary J. Blige.

On the other hand, James Fauntleroy appeared on Kendrick Lamar’s “To Pimp A Butterfly”, which was nominated for Album of the Year at the 58th Grammy Awards. He also wrote Justin Timberlake’s “Pusher Love Girl” and has worked on two of his albums, including “The 20/20 Experience.” Shortly after, he collaborated with Bruno Mars on his album “24K Magic”, co-writing seven tracks.
The Bored Apes are tight with Eminem, but now they also made a deal with M&M’s for a limited edition with the faces of the NFT band members. The KINGSHIP X M&MS collaboration features a video featuring a Bored Ape simply emblazoning the special edition sweets with turquoise laser eyes.

Bored Apes Yacht Club sails into the music business
The Bored Apes Music NFT Saga started back when Eminem & Snoop Dogg released “From The D 2 The LBC”, the music video featuring their NFTs. The two Hip Hop legends then performed the song at the MTV VMAs using their 3D Bored Ape NFT avatars. Also, Snoop plans to open a Bored Ape themed “Dr. Bombay” sweet shop in Los Angeles.
Meanwhile, KINGSHIP is still practicing their new songs. In addition, there has been a key card NFT collection consisting of 5,000 NFTs released. These will act as a VIP pass to future events and fan club membership benefits.
