Bay Area Spotlight: @OfficialYID Preaches To The Masses In “Love Me Back”
Listening to your OGs can save you a lot of trouble. These are people who’ve experienced what your either living in, pretending to be a part of, or what you’re currently involved in but unaware of the potential outcomes. They’re usually the most grizzled of veterans, old in age, yet wise and compassionate in their teachings. YID is the latest in this line of street veterans, but he’s much younger than his lyricism makes him appear. On his new track “Love Me Back,” his street life past and future are bared for all to see in a somber, perplexing listen about the dangers of this kind of lifestyle. His raps are powerful and plain; a conscious choice to show what lies in his heart without any gimmicks.
The visual reaffirms this straight-forward approach. There aren’t any foreign cars or naked women; it’s just YID, a chair, and a stern-telling to the camera. If you’ve ever had questions about the street life or would like to know what truly comes with it, we feel like YID’s new video will be exactly what you need to see.
Take a few minutes and check out “Love Me Back” below.
Asian-American rappers Star2, ChinaTownRunner, and $tupid Young release the new single / video entitled “FWM”. The single precedes Star2 and ChinaTownRunner’s upcoming EP and sets the bar high with haunting cavernous beats and dark melodic flow.
Each of them affirm that they are “about money” in their separate verses and all ask listeners to “come and F*** With Me.” The music video for “FWM” captures Star2, ChinaTownRunner, and $tupid Young in a graffiti-stroked garage full of sports cars and women. Leaning into the sheer magnitude of the track itself, the visuals for “FWM” zero in on each rapper for an intense performance.
Star2 and ChinaTownRunner are preparing to embark on a summer tour with $tupid Young set to appear at multiple dates. Additionally, Star2 and ChinaTownRunner will perform on July 6th in support of the annual Ka-ren Soccer Tournament and Concert in South Dakota.
Star2 is a refugee artist from the Mae La refugee camp in Thailand. Star2’s documentary, RETURN TO KAWTHOOLEI: A Refugee Rapper’s Journey to His Homeland in Burma will be screened at the New Media Film Festival in LA on June 6th. So far, the documentary has been awarded with “Best Short Documentary” at the Malaysian Film Festival, “Best Documentary” at the Busan New Wave Short Film Festival in S. Korea, “Best Web and Media” at the IndieX Film Fest in LA, and “Exceptional Merit in Docu-drama Short & Human Spirit” at the Documentaries Without Borders Film Festival. Star2 returns to Thailand in May for his second trip.
