Video: 03 Greedo & Ron-Rontheproducer – “Bands In Da Basement” ft. Chief Keef
The L.A. Rapper Shares the Latest Video from His Critically Acclaimed Load It Up Vol. 01 Mixtape
Critical Praise:
“The latest hope of Los Angeles hip-hop” – Rolling Stone
“The Watts rapper is an essential piece of West Coast rap” – Pitchfork
“Los Angeles street-rap weirdo 03 Greedo is one of the most exciting and inventive voices around right now, and he already released one of the best rap albums of the year” – Stereogum
“Literally no one else on Leonardo DiCaprio’s green Earth talks flavorful cash sh*t as wonderfully as 03 Greedo.” – Complex
“This mixtape is a step away from his usual sunny LA sound, but 03 Greedo knew what he was doing when he enlisted the help of Kenny Beats. This link up has resulted in an entertaining, yet simple record, the concept expertly executed. ‘Netflix and Deal’ is a cinema experience – minus the over-expensive snacks.” – NME
The Video:
Kindred spirits and cult figures who push the artistic limits of street music, 03 Greedo and Chief Keef have been balling since birth. In “Bands In Da Basement,” their new music video, the two rappers are represented by pint-sized avatars: two effortlessly fly children that share Keef and Greedo’s hairstyles, favorite colors, and appetite for the almighty dollar. Directed by All Da Smoke, “Bands In Da Basement” mashes up adorable clips of the two rap babies counting cash and shooting dice with archival footage of Greedo performing before the 2018 commencement of his prison sentence. “Bands In Da Basement” is a standout track from Load It Up Vol. 01, Greedo’s new album.
Produced in full by Ron-RonTheProducer, Load It Up Vol. 01 applies the raw creativity of Greedo’s early “creep music” with the songwriting chops and mic presence of the locked-in Greedo who recorded thousands of songs in the months leading to his lockup. Spanning 17 tracks, including the hook-filled “Baccstage“ ft. Shordie Shordie & Wallie The Sensei the burbling late night jam “Home Vlone,” and the hard-hitting “Drip Keep Going” ft. Key Glock, the new album is a showcase for the L.A. rapper’s inimitable mixture of melody and rhymes. Featuring additional appearances from Sada Baby, Rob Vicious of Shoreline Mafia, Desto Dubb, Z Money, Ralfy The Plug, Ketchy The Great, Runway Richy, and Weezy Huncho, Load It Up Vol. 01 is available everywhere via Alamo Records.
Undeterred by his extended prison stay in Abilene, TX, Greedo released three new projects with high-profile producers in 2019. Packed with exciting guest stars and countless movie references, the Kenny Beats-produced Netflix & Deal garnered universal critical acclaim, named one of the best projects of 2019 by Complex, Vice, and DJ Booth. Earlier in the year, Greedo connected with Mustard for Still Summer In The Projects, home to the hit single “Trap House” ft. Shoreline Mafia (35 million Spotify streams) and named one of the best hip-hop albums of the year by UPROXX. Rounding out a year of big-name collaborations, Greedo shared Meet The Drummers, a collaborative EP with Travis Barker. Load It Up Vol. 01 continues Greedo’s prolific output and proves that, despite his physical absence, he’s a major factor in today’s rap game.
