SBP

Sky Blue Paradise is a Europe-based creative collective and music label formed by dräco, mailliw, nt, and Wunda Y. The group started off in 2021 after Wunda Y came with mailliw to Sweden for a visit where he met dräco and nt, and the collective was born. Originally rooted in Malmö, Sweden, the group now spans multiple cities — including Berlin, London, Bristol, and Oxford — uniting artists and producers dedicated to building sonic worlds that blur the lines between rap, alternative, and electronic music. SBP is defined by its collaborative spirit, emotional authenticity, and a shared goal of making music that reflects real human experience; honesty, vulnerability, growth, struggle, and joy, while pushing creative boundaries. No fake shit, no industry relations. We all grow or we don’t grow, that’s SBP’s motto. SBP wants every artist to reach their full potential, no matter who you are or where you are.
