Jay Rock, Kendrick Lamar, Future and James Blake - King's Dead [Music Video]


The whole TDE crew has been putting in overtime with the release of the Black Panther soundtrack, which just debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 album chart. They've released three singles ("All The Stars," "Pray for Me," "King's Dead") and and two videos — "All The Stars" and the above "King's Dead." One of the motifs in the "King's Dead" video is being higher than the rest: more powerful, more successful, more dangerous; bolder. The video opens with the crew sitting atop palm trees in LA, at least 30 feet above the everyone else, which might be the most Compton thing I've ever seen. They also have several scenes where Jay Rock, K Dot and Future are perched on three consecutive buildings. Pretty dope shit.

And as you may or may not have heard yet, the Black Panther film is breaking all sorts of box office records. As of Monday afternoon, it's projected to earn as much as $245 million in it's opening four days. If those numbers stick, it would represent the second highest four-day opening of all time, behind Star Wars: The Force Awakens ($288MM) and just ahead of Star Wars: The Last Jedi ($241MM). As someone who saw the film and absolutely loved it, I hope it breaks every record possible. More black stories on screen, told by more black filmmakers, would be incredible.

I'd like to include a Spotify playlist on here, but a decent amount of the tracks aren't on Spotify because they haven't been released officially, they have been but Spotify hasn't gotten them yet, they're a radio rip, a leaked track, or an artist too new/underground/without a rights deal :/
