Say what you want about Perez Hilton, but the man’s got good taste in music. This week, he introduced Sliimy, the first artist signed to his record label, Perezcious Records. It’s easy to draw comparisons between Sliimy and Mika (another Perez favorite) – they both sport a mop of curls, a quirky look and sing in falsetto – but Sliimy’s sound is definitely distinct. While Mika’s leans more towards electro-pop, Sliimy’s pop sound incorporates acoustic guitar, ska beats and has the potential to appeal to all ages.

Sliimy initially made waves last December with his cover of Britney Spears’ “Womanizer”. He is currently on tour in Europe, and his album is scheduled for a September 14 release.

Check out his video for “Wake Up” below.  Anyone else hear some Lily Allen in there?
