HipHopDX Premiere: As the first official single from AP‘s full-length album, Crown, “Freedom” rings and it rings loudly in the accompanying visuals, which come just in time for Election Day (November 8). Beginning with a “routine traffic stop,” the Treble Child Media-directed short film details the consequences of police shooting deaths, referencing victims like Eric Garner and Alton Sterling along the way.
With his impeccable delivery and an impenetrable flow, the Denver MC has made it his mission to tell his life story through authentic Hip Hop, something that brilliantly comes together in “Freedom.” Watch the video above and listen to Crown here. Catch AP opening for YG in the Mile High City November 13 at the Ogden Theatre.
