Change

Homerton’s V9 channels The Mask’s Stanley Ipkiss in the visuals for the spitter’s latest offering ‘Change’.

Continuing the streak-hot, the masked man links-up with rising producer Tefoma who takes us across a vibrant drill soundscape, layered with woozy woodwind, ethnic plucks and manipulated vocal samples - curating a mellow melody for V9 to coast across. Injecting energy, Tefoma punches in choppy drill-infused percussion to the woozy soundscape - creating the picture perfect canvas for the raw talent to thrive upon. 

Turning to Kevin Hudson for this visuals, V9 channels Jim Carrey’s Stanley Ipkiss from the blockbusting ‘The Mask’; showcasing the hometown Homerton hero suited and booted in that notorious mustard toned suit with a matching fedora, as the driller switches up from a plethora of locations; from reciting the energy-fuelled rhythm on a velvet red curtain drawn stage, to gun fights wrapped up in humour, reminiscent of the 1994 film. 

Take in V9’s latest number here and be sure to check out the homage to the Jim Carrey classic.
