There are certain artists that shine so bright on their own but when they link up with their brother in arms, something special takes place. Maybe it's a different level of comfortability or a willingness to be more vulnerable, maybe it's the simple fact they are just able to have more fun working alongside the homie...
Whatever the reason, this is precisely what goes down whenever Andre Jakai and Vee Skeeno come together on wax.
As if they are pushing each other to reach their greatest versions, the music feels a little smoother and the product a little more well-rounded when Jakai and Skeeno collab.
And so we get the visual treatment for "Real", a joint that originally found life on Andre's 2018 release, From The Other Side. With content focusing on the confusion, personal journey and need for self-awareness that comes along with the roller coaster ride that is deciphering whether love is real, it's a fun juxtaposition to witness the two Hartford-based artists having such a fun time laying down their verses.
Amidst breaking various traffic laws, Jakai and Skeeno cruise around while they fill the smooth, soul-sampled Robb2B and RNE LM-produced record with wildly dense lyrical content. There's not a single chance you'll catch every line, and appreciate the depth of these verses, in one sitting. So be prepared to run this one back a few times.
"Real" is a well put together music video, utilizing the right amount of cut-scenes and changes in atmosphere to capture a wide range of emotions throughout the visual's run-time. Daps and pounds to Jamie Tobias and Kareem Clarke for helping craft something as all encompassing as "Real".
Stay tuned for more new music from Vee Skeeno as the roll-out of sometypeofasadgenius continues.
