Rising rhymer Dave East has been generating a lot of buzz since dropping his ‘Black Rose’ mixtape in July. Now the Harlem native releases a new video for a song off the project, ‘Let It Go.’
In the Wolf Creations-directed clip, Dave spits hardcore bars and warns folks that he’s not the guy to be played with. The rapper also wears a crown and dons a white mask to give the visual that eerie feeling, all while a woman plays the violin.
“Real n—-s just won’t speak / Stay away from police / Smoke clear and I’m still East / Corporate money, I’m still street / Like boss mob, I still creep / Them plates ready, we still eat,” he raps over the violin-driven track, produced by Charlie Beatz.
Dave East recently joins the roster of Nas’ Mass Appeal Records, so expect more music from the ‘Dope’ rapper in 2015. You can listen to his latest mixtape, ‘Black Rose, below.
