5EB ‘You Kno’ by Lauzza

Promonews - 31st Mar 2022

What year is it? Are we watching YouTube or Channel U? Take a nostalgic trip with Lauzza and 5EB with the ‘You Kno’ video as we travel back in time to the early Noughties in true Avirex style.

MTV Cribs-style fashion goes a long way around the house of 5EB as he raps poolside whilst Lauzza uses faded slow edits and DV-esque camera lighting to put the audience in a certain time. The hilariously dated dissolve edits are a masterstroke in themselves.

But this is a video packed with enjoyable period-piece easter eggs, from the cheeky MTV-inspired animated interludes, hand-painted 'Mo Money Mo Problem' backdrops, or rum and whisky-filled reserved club spaces while the DJ spins tunes in the back...

It's a really enjoyable homage by Lauzza, done with a lot of love and excellent craft.
