We’ve got some more mini-reviews served up for ya. We’ve gone through our backlog and highlighted the ones done by duos, groups and/or collaborations with other artists. There are definitely a few grade-A viewings in this batch, so pour out your favorite beverage and make it a Youtube music video festival type of evening.
DANakaDan x afterschoolspecial x Traphik x JK Films x Pigeon John x Verseatile – “Future Rockstars of America”
-NOthing really. They misspelled Verse’s name in the title credits, I guess. Also, IZ didn’t spit.
Us – “No Matter Where You Are”
-I understand the movie tie-in. It’s important. But I could have done without the footage.
G.R.L. – “Ugly Heart”
–R.I.P. Simone Battle =(
The Dance (formerly known as Smokey Robotic, with Illmind) – “Cheers”
-I don’t have much… maybe the strobe light was mildly irritating?
Run River North – “Monsters Calling Home”
-I wasn’t in any of their tour footage. I went to one of their shows. How dare they exclude me.
Dia Frampton (featuring for tyDi) – “Stay”
-No footage of Dia. </3
Sam Ock (featuring for GEMINI) – “All My Love”
-I found the narrative of the story a bit dull
Lil Crazed (featuring for Johnny Jett) – “To the Million”
-This track was very one sided. Crazed carried it, Jett needed him on it.
J. Reyez x JimmyBoi x Thai – “Don’t Bother Me”
-When I saw the lineup of the song, I knew almost immediately what the video was gonna look like. Booze, Boobs, and Whips. *Yawn*
Jasmine V x Kendrick Lamar – “That’s Me Right There”
-It’s never good when the feature outclasses the host artist. Kendrick’s verse was the best part of the track.
