HipHopDX Premiere: New York born and bred, MC Whiteowl has enlisted the production talent of Statik Selektah for the single “One Chance” and today (February 7) takes the veil off the subsequent video. Directed by Olise Forel for Moving Silence, the video features Whiteowl depicting the utter sense of desperation of an aspiring artist trying to make it.

According to the caption, “the clip’s protagonist resembles a hybrid of Tom Hanks’ Castaway character and a down-on-his-luck John Rambo. As in, dude’s clearly been hitting the weights, but has also lost his mind a bit during his time alone in the woods, where he fashions himself a spear to, yes, catch his dinner.”
