You Need To Hear This has the official video for the new single "Life Round Here", a collaboration between James Blake and Chance The Rapper.
The video, shot entirely in black and white, tracks Blake and Chance as they cruise in a lowrider through an eerie forest inhabited by stallions and Somalian pirates.
"I love juxtapositions," says the video's award-winning director Nabil, "so I thought I'd bring an old school lowrider to the countryside in England, and bring the two together in a way that makes people question things."
We also caught up with James, Chance and Nabil on set last month for an exclusive interview about the collaboration: noisey.vice.com...
James Blake appears courtesy of Polydor Records (UK), a division of Universal Music Operations Ltd

John Lamb He's actually been around since '09. Released a few songs, then put out a few EPs in 2010. His earlier stuff has less vocals though and is mostly focused on beats. He must've realized people like his voice, and then started singing more. I'm happy he decided to do so.

The beat, the sound it made me feel weird like I was floating, then Chance's part came on and the constant "agh" in the back got me turnt asf and it was just the best feeling in the world. Too bad I can't seem to enjoy the song the same way anymore. Just a one time thing.

@ang95meg 11 лет назад

james blakes words hold such powerful meaning with the little amount of words he actually does say within one full song which is really amazing and makes him super talented and a great writer. I have nothing against chance the rapper but i was hoping his verse would be stronger. To the people who say the song is repetitive and doesn't go anywhere, try listening to his other songs and try to not think of the usual format of todays song structure. Its new & different so it'll take time to warm up to, but trust me the man is brilliant. James blake is good music.

@Grimreapr476 11 лет назад

The only part of Chance's rap that felt like it was going anywhere was the stream of thought that ends on "I wonder if God is still magic" I felt like if he kept following those trail of thoughts, the collab would have been more successful
