Embracing Diversity: Lil Hanky Panky's Journey from Germany to Jamaica's Dancehall Scene
Apr 26, 2024 Season 4 Episode 9
Cornell Bunting/Lil Hanky Panky

On the upcoming episode of Stories to Create Podcast, Cornell Bunting sits down with the rising star Lil Hanky Panky, a German-born artist with dreams as vibrant as the Jamaican sun. Lilie Gorch Kov, hailing from Hannover, Germany, was raised in a household filled with Russian culture, but her heart found its rhythm in the world of music, spurred on by a childhood love for dance.

Her journey truly began at her hometown Fine Arts College, where she stumbled upon the infectious beats of Reggae and Dancehall. This discovery led her into the depths of the underground music scene, where she danced her way into the spotlight with groups like Peace Development Crew. After college, Lilie embarked on a soul-searching adventure that ultimately brought her to the shores of Jamaica in 2018.

Immersed in the island's vibrant culture, Lilie found her home amongst the rhythms of Dancehall. Starting as a dance teacher, she quickly made a name for herself, eventually collaborating on music videos with renowned artists like Sean Paul. By 2020, Lilie, now known as Lil Hanky Panky, had fully embraced the Jamaican music scene, working with Grammy-winning producer "Teetimus" to refine her unique style.

By the time her alias went viral in 2021, Lil Hanky Panky had cemented her place in Jamaica's Dancehall circuit. Tracks like "Brand Me A Rebel" and "Sativa" garnered widespread attention, propelling her towards local success. As summer approaches, Lil Hanky Panky is gearing up for a slew of new releases, blending her evolving musical experiences into a fusion sound uniquely her own.

Join us as this talented artist shares her journey, from humble beginnings to present-day success, in an episode you won't want to miss.
