Boy, oh boy, are you guys in for a treat. Our favorite video-game obsessed Chip Hop MC, Raheem Jarbo a.k.a Mega Ran is back with brand new visuals for his high energy, rapid fire track, “React”. Aptly named, the song has the speed of a knee-jerk response to being spooked and features a simple, but impactful drum-and-bass instrumental that is extremely reminiscent of The Roots circa The Tipping Point.Â
The video, directed by Micael Cardoza, features Ran and his quick-lipped accomplice Storyville mid-heist in Philadelphia. After getting caught by a a relatively incompetent detective, Storyville manages to meet up with Ran just in time to bring the house down at their home base — the stage. Always have to make time for the fans, even if you are fugitive on the run from the man.
“React” is an extremely punchy track to follow up Mega Ran’s previous single, and is making us so stoked to see what happens for the talented rapper throughout 2015. Are you guys digging the new video as much as we are? Sound off in the comments below!
Make sure to preorder the duo’s forthcoming album, Soul Veggies right here.
MegaRan is awesome and I’m glad he and Storyville are bustin more beats together. Storyville is the one winged angel on Ran’s Black Materia album.
