Before the Heavy Is The Crown Tour with Cyhi The Prynce & Childish Major starts on March 15th (I’m going in April!), Big K.R.I.T. uploads the video for the Mannie Fresh-produced “1999” featuring the New Orleans born/Atlanta-based singer Lloyd.
Director Tyler Yee makes sure I’m not asking why wasn’t Dave Myers called for nostalgia purposes to direct instead of him as the visual begins with a Delorean making its way into frame. An Aaliyah look alike, the Mississippi rapper/producer in a Fubu sweatsuit inside of a stretch Hummer limo with Matrix graphics on the screen all being shot with a fisheye lens. Yep, we got everything covered here for #TBT. Enjoy one of my favorites from his latest classic, 4eva Is A Mighty Long Time.
Y’all know I LOVE NPR’s Tiny Desk Concert series.
