Free Nationals ft A$AP Rocky & Anderson .Paak 'Gangsta' by François Rousselet
Promonews - 30th Apr 2024
In this mashup of a gangsta rap music vid and a kid's wild imagination, mini versions of A$AP Rocky and Anderson .Paak cruise a world where traditional tropes of the genre are reimagined through the lens of youthful innocence in Francois Rousselet's video for Free Nationals.
Rather than guns, babes, police, drugs, and dealers, think life-sized toys ruling the streets: Hot Wheels cars, piñata rides, Barbie dolls flexing, while LEGO choppers buzz overhead.
But ASAP and Anderson need to watch out, as plush monsters play dealers of one of the most dangerous drugs of them all - sugar - adding a twist of danger to their wild ride.
In other words, another hugely imaginative and brilliantly executed tour de force from one the great music video directors of his generation.
