Anderson .Paak & Knxwledge Raisin' Hell in a Pontiac LeMans within Nxworries' CALMATIC-directed "Suede" Video (Stones Throw)
"
["Suede"]
featured the
LA
-based vocalist's signature rasp and slick talk over a chopped up sample of
Gil Scott-Heron
's
"The Bottle"
courtesy of buzzing beatmaker
Knxwledge
, his partner in the duo collectively known as
Nxworries
,"
diligently reported late Tuesday afternoon.
Nxworries
is
Stones Throw
's latest
Jaylib
-style rapper-producer concoction, consisting of
Dr. Dre
's
R&B
crooning
Compton
-assisant,
Anderson.Paak
and prolific
New Jersey/Philly
-bred
LA
beatsmith
Knxwledge
. Their lone February-released single,
"Suede"
is an undisputed
Snoop & Dre
-influenced creation that's almost reminiscent of
George Clinton
's own unique
G-Funk
-inspiring
Parliament-Funkadelic
sound.
Stones Throw
founder and label-head,
Peanut Butter Wolf
actually briefly appears within
Nxworries'
newly-minted
"Suede"
video as his
Alyssa Milano
-obsessed,
Prince
-esque alter ego,
. Like-minded
LA
-based director
CALMATIC
ingeniously has
Anderson.Paak
covertly sneaking out of
Folerio
's second story patio window following an apparent one-night stand during the clip's introductory scenes.
Then, we catch a glimpse of
Paak
swiftly hopping into
Knxwledge
's cherry red
Pontiac LeMans
just as a leather-clad
Folerio
begins to passionately race outside; "Smoother than a motherf**ker / suede on the inside / candy paint, candy paint / I ain't gotta tell you what the rims look like / Look, I'm gripping wood like a motherf**ker." Immediately following
Anderson.Paak
's "I'm a coach, I'mma teach these b*tches how to layup" line,
CALMATIC
smoothly cuts
sun-drenched footage into some old school 1980-90's-reminiscent footage from one of those corny
"How to Dunk Like Mike"
VHS tapes.
Knxwledge
pretty much just sits there and looks exceedingly cool doing nothing, in a
Raisin Hell
shirt sporting sandals with socks, while
Anderson.Paak
somehow manages to seduce two young ladies with the head-scratcher of a
"If I call you a b*tch / it's cause you're my b*tch / and as long as no one else call you a b*tch / then there won't be no problems."
Nxworries
are currently working on a full-length, which should likely be expected by either late 2015 or early 2016, and are opening for former
Odd Future
member
Earl Sweatshirt
on the remainder of his
The 2015 Ready to Leave Now Tour
(through September 19th).
