#LatePass. Ok I just reviewed the new video from the homie, Lyriciss for the song off “Practice” entitled “Bright Nights”. First off when I first heard Bright Nights sometime back in October I automatically added it to the list of “fave Lyriciss songs“. Now we have a video for the song; the homie Lyriciss answered a few questions for me that in the end, ended up writing the review for its self! So I give you the words of L. Enjoy!
Next up, look out for a video for “Hot Music”, also shot by Knowledgeable Ent. and Cool Kids Forever Films. Other than that, look for something epic from Lyriciss and DC’s #1 DJ, DJ Alizay. Umm…and many other amazing accomplishments that he doesn’t even know about yet, look out for them, because they’re going to happen. (laughs) Enjoy the video, y’all. Peace.
This song is really just inspired by the actual story of me pursuing a career in this music game. My father didn’t support it at first. My mother, while a little skeptical, has always been the one to tell me to go for it and has supported me 100%, so I started off with those two lines right there, ya know? As far as the video, you know, my actual little brother directed the video. Dante Bailey, who runs his own video production company, Knowledgeable Ent., and is also an intern over at Tabi Bonney’s Cool Kids Forever Films, which is how they ended up collaborating in the making of my video. Dante really made this happen though…he wrote the treatment, directed it, shot it, edited it, everything, with a little post-production help from myself.
We just took it in the sense of, this song is very much a narrative. So with that being the case, we made me a narrator in the video. We had a young, talented artist out of the DMV named Obii Say basically act out the lyrics for the visuals, making this more like a movie than a music video, really. So all of the struggles I speak about in my life in the song, you get to see him living that. The beginning and end of the video show the parallels between me and him because that represents EVERY young artist struggling to make it in this game.
