Last year, Kyle Rapps released his On Air mixtape, sampling from the legendary French electro duo Air. Now, following the video for "Universe Traveler" with Talib Kweli, and a recently released video for "Bully" from his previous Re-Edutainment EP, Rapps is excited to release the latest video from On Air, for the single "Streets Move On."
The video, directed by Mr. Complex, captures Kyle backstage at the now shuttered Southpaw in Brooklyn, mixing the footage with stark and poignantly shot images of Brooklyn and Harlem streets as Kyle makes his way around the city. For Kyle, the purpose of the song and the video was to show a side of Brooklyn that is too often forgotten. "I wanted to show how hungry shit is despite all the gentrification," explains Rapps, "And also that there's love in these streets despite the struggling."
Earlier this spring, billy woods announced his latest album, History Will Absolve Me, with an April 10th release date. Since then, he's leaked a number of tracks, including the Roc Marciano- and Masai Bey-featured lead single "Body Of Work" and the most recently released non-album track "Frozen Sunlight," which features Open Mike Eagle and MarQ Spekt. Now, with April 10th finally upon us, woods is celebrating his album release with a video for the album's latest single, "Duck Hunt."
The song, produced by A.M. Breakups, is one of the eeriest on History Will Absolve Me, built around dark, bubbling synths, muted horns, and a steady drum break, which does well to compliment woods' fluid, complex flow, with bars like, "Black Robert Baden Powell, never caught without the ratchet/ Grass like Wimbeldon; wood racquet/ Rap like a simpleton, see new tax bracket/ So-called goons, turns out they schools was magnet." The video, directed by Crosby, fits the track's grimy, claustrophobic vibe, shot in cluttered rooms and decrepit hallways, red and blue tints serving to both outline and obscure.
A brand new visual from Open University Productions. Fresh off some ill videos for the likes of Locksmith and Sahtyre, Amadeuz Christ brings you his latest visual, a video featuring three veteran emcees from the south bay (northern california), and produced by C-Note, off his debut album as a producer, “Keepin it 100″. The song is a clasic blend of smooth hip-hop and eye-opening lyrics. Check out the video
