KC Locke goes full blockbuster with an epic visual spectacle for KSI, visualizing the rapper-influencer's indisputable position at the Thick Of It. The opening shot sets the scene as the camera speeds through landscapes of Antarctica, then cracking through the ice to find a frozen ice statue of KSI... or rather, he's frozen in a block of ice, being cut out to return to life to begin his rap journey.As he transitions through various stages - from sitting on an ice throne to taking over a KSI-branded Wall Street tower where he's joined by guest artist Trippie Redd - the video symbolically portrays the artist’s dominance in both music and business. And it all culminates in a dramatic tornado scene where he battles the elements, emerging victorious.Boasting a glossy, VFX-heavy aesthetic and some inspired world-building, it's full of KC Locke's trademark visual style and high concept approach. It's also a great vehicle for KSI which allows his charisma to shine though amidst ever-evolving visual effects.

Matt Lambert directs a short documentary film for Jimmy Somerville's groundbreaking 80s band Bronski Beat. The 40th anniversary short is a reimagining of enduring LGBTQ+ anthem Why, originally released in 1984. Using personal and archival footage, Lambert crafts a powerful story of resilience, community, and solidarity to pay tribute to those who speak up and put themselves on the line for the sake of love - those on the frontlines often being the most at risk.Using vibrant titles to guide and inform the viewer, the contrast of vintage and contemporary footage reflects the considerable timeline between the original release and today, cementing both the progress and difficulties that are still present. Using textural overlays and graphical elements to transition from vignette to vignette, it's a singular - and important - piece of work, and is absolutely absorbing.“Jimmy wanted to commission me to make a project that spoke to the climate of LGBTQ+ rights today,” explains Lambert. “I ended up exploring archives from past and present, material from my phone and friends — self-shot material from the community — which became a documentary short film. We had access to Bronski Beat's original stems to sculpt the timeless and still timely score to this film.“It was such a dream to look into the past and future with Jimmy,” says Lambert. “This project was born out of an ongoing dialogue about the past and our ongoing responsibilities to protect what we’ve fought so hard for."We are grateful to have the support of Stonewall UK in a final call to action at the end of the film, so viewers have a resource to go to for help, guidance, and more information on LGBTQ+ rights."

Charlie Di Placido brings his magic formula to Perrie, and that really works out in the video for You Go Your Way.Well known for his one-shot choreography videos - most famously, although not exclusively for Jungle - and now having recently worked with Kylie Minogue and guests, Di Placido brings the style and the star power together in one package here.The benefit is that the ex-Little Mix star Perrie can hold her own among a troupe of wonderful dancers and with a great location, cinematography and typically skilful Steadicam-work by Gary Kent, this video looks marvellous, from first to last.Top notch stuff from both director and the artist. It's arguably the best vehicle yet for Perrie's new solo career.
