Video: Fashawn | The Beginning (prod. by Evidence)
Ya tenia rato que no escuchabamos algo de Fashawn y esta de regreso (al menos a nuestro sitio) con este track y video producido por Evidence. donde se puede apreciar algo de lo que hace Ev mas alla del mcing y beatmaking, igual Fashawn deja en claro lo que trae para su nuevo album titulado «The Ecology», disfruta los visuales y chaca lo que comento Evidence sobre el proceso de produccion del video. Por cierto es Trav de los MSK quien realiza esa fina bomb.
”The Beginning” is a really minimal track, it doesn’t even have a hi hat, so there’s not really much to hide behind here. I liked the combination of the loop and the drums to keep the sound raw. Running the beat through some lo fi filters and keeping Fashawn’s vocals on top and clean was my objective. When he spit me his rhymes I felt every word needed to be heard. To me this record and video is about him. Visualizing an environment in which he came from and showing everyday distractions in his life both personal and public and how they constantly try to distract him while he was focused on his craft in which in this case was the camera. That was our main goal. Adding on the one take aspect of it really made it a challenge and shooting it illegally with no permit didn’t help make this an easy task. Both Punit Dhesi and I looked at every aspect. The Minimal beat and black and white video we felt it would compliment each other perfectly. To me the video looks how the song feels. Fashawn has some really notable lines, originally I was going to be on there with him, but decided not to once I felt how focused he was on the record. For a very versatile artist this is my favorite side of Fashawn the MC. I’m really excited about the video and am really excited about his album. The world needs to hear it already.” – Evidence
