Psychedelic rap purveyor Nelson returns with fittingly smoked out visuals for his latest single, “CueTheHorns,” off the soon-coming SevenYe mixtape, which is his first release in two years.
The tripped-out video was directed and edited by Nelson himself, but that shouldn’t surprise fans of the New Brunswick, N.J.-residing artist. He’s been deeply involved with anything his name’s attached to, as he’s equally invested in the aesthetic and musical sides of his art. And when it comes to “CueTheHorns,” that aesthetic remains in the realm of mind-bending imagery, much of it requiring multiple views to decipher.
As for the hazy, rattling instrumental, it’s handled by longtime collaborator ColdCutts, who hails from Scranton, Pa. and contributed heavily to Nelson’s previous projects, Sloth and On The Sly. This may be CC’s only appearance on SevenYe—most of it is produced by noname—but it’s obvious he and Nelson have killer musical chemistry.
SevenYe is set to drop on December 22nd via RRCB, and is now available for pre-order via iTunes.
