Trevor Hall - "Jupiter's Call" (feat. Will Evans) (Video)

Trevor Hall gifted Villagers with an impromptu, Will Evans-featured performance of "Jupiter's Call" last month, liberating a breathtaking visual shot by his beloved, Emory Hall, from atop Crater Lake in Oregon.

Filmed while Hall was on tour this Fall, the acoustic jam session is an airy, upliftingly dulcet presentation of the Fruitful Darkness record. The simple, grounding and inspiring song finds a sense of relatability in it's personal nature, as Trevor's music has a tendency to do. Tucked gently beneath the comfort of Hall's melodic delivery, listeners are able to discover the powerful lessons and messages shared through the song's lyrical content.

The addition of Will Evans, who shared the stage with Trevor throughout the tour, resulted in a magical rendition of "Jupiter's Call", highlighted by the spontaneous energy encompassing the duet. Both artists flow together majestically, building in tandem upon the energy brought forth by the other - there's a brotherhood on display in the video, serving as a symbol of the type of unity both artists cover in their extensive catalogues. The realness behind the smile and laugh shared by Hall and Evans at the conclusion of the video is felt by the viewer, a testimony to the emotion drawn from the subconscious throughout the song and video.

When Mother Earth is as naturally awe-inspiring as She is, there's no better backdrop to feature in your music video. Trevor Hall respects and gets this, the beauty Earth frequently serving as the primary source of imagery for Hall's videos. With a static, illuminated view highlighting the natural gifts that exist around us, Hall and Evans are free to allow the music to speak through them - and the viewers are able to experience the music and the backdrop in their purest, most uncut incarnations.

Trevor's Fruitful Darkness is available now via your favorite streaming services and on his official website.

Raz Simone - "Clout" [prod. Anthony Danza] (Video)

Fresh off the heels of another trip around the sun, Raz Simone comes through with his first visuals of 2018. In typical Raz fashion, the Black Umbrella founder holds nothing back on "Clout", addressing a myriad of subject matter with a confidently calm yet simultaneously aggressive delivery. Simone has always been one of my favorite artists to cover, thanks in large part to the layered presentation of his content. With "Clout", an essay could be composed on both the track itself and the accompanying video - while both seem almost overly simple upon first glance/listen, the song and video cover a lot of ground over the course of five and a half minutes. The visuals are split between two backdrops - Raz being "studied" in a research facility and Raz rapping in the street. The vibe of the production on "Clout" syncs up perfectly with the dreary, simple visual of Simone in the rainy streets...appropriately carrying a black umbrella. It's...

Ian Matthew - "Ashtray"

Beyond creating good music, the most vital characteristic in any artist is - in my opinion - growth. And growth comes in many forms but, more often than not, the greatest growth comes from recognizing shortcomings; from falling and getting back up, learning from the highs and lows of the evolutionary process. "Ashtray" is the first joint I've heard from Ian Matthew that makes me feel like dude is truly stepping into his own artistically. And I mean that with the utmost respect. The latest drop from the CT-based artist features Ian taking a few big steps back from a stereotypical, bar-heavy hip-hop sound, instead embracing a smooth style that is highlighted by some passionate crooning. And, man, it works really well. Backed by some light acoustic production, Ian is able to allow the emotion to emanate from his vocals, capturing the attention of the listener with his raw delivery. There are enough emcees filling records with catch-as-catch-can lyrical prowess, ma...

Grieves - "Let It Through" (Video)

In September, Grieves liberated new music for the first time since releasing his Running Wild album in 2017 and now the Rhymesayers Entertainment artist comes through with the official visual treatment for "Let It Through". The single denotes both the artistic range of Grieves and the personal growth and self-discovery the wordsmith has been experiencing over the course of his journey here in the physical. Packed with relaxed melodies and a calmly delivered labyrinth of wordplay, the sentimental "Let It Through" is presented with a composed, collected and self-aware delivery. Grieves is experiencing a state of acceptance, finding peace with what is rather than attempting to swim against the current of life. Throughout the record, one gets a sense that Grieves is learning from - and growing through - the chaos that has encapsulated and shaped his life. It's vital to recognize the importance of documenting the destruction if one desires to showcase the ...
