Video: DUSTY LOCANE – “REWIND“
The Canarsie Rising Star Plots His Ascension to Don Status in the Latest Video from UNTAMED, His Debut Album
Critical Praise:
“A rumbling voice that could be picked up on a seismograph” – Pitchfork
“He’s going to be a force to be reckoned with, and he knows it.” – Lyrical Lemonade
“…hard-hitting rhymes that will surely be heard blaring over car stereos in Brooklyn.” – HotNewHipHop
The Video:
Bursting out of Brooklyn with a booming bass voice and a demanding demeanor, DUSTY LOCANE is primed to continue his ascension in 2022. Completing a silent but deadly rise to the top of the NYC underworld, DUSTY shares “REWIND,” his gripping new music video. Gliding atop a high-octane drill beat from Atlanta-based production duo The Atomix (A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie), DUSTY warns his opposition not to do anything they can’t take back: “If you come on the Fifth actin’ like you tough, you cannot rewind.” Directed by Nimi Hendrix, the video finds DUSTY reminiscing from his high rise, thinking about the time his handpicked crew turned the tables on the plug. The cinematic clip shows the heist and its deadly aftermath, in which DUSTY and his accomplices walk away with both the cash and the weight.
Following the seductive Yung Bleu-featuring “WHAT YOU NEED” (1.2 million views), “REWIND” is the latest video from UNTAMED, the Canarsie native’s debut album, which capped off a breakout 2021 for the 22-year-old artist. on December 3rd, DUSTY joined the exclusive ranks of artists like Olivia Rodrigo, Coi Leray, Pooh Shiesty, and many more, by being welcomed into the #RIAAClassOf2021 for receiving his first GOLD certification this year with his debut single, “ROLLIN N CONTROLLIN FREESTYLE” which racked up over 200 million combined streams. The EMPIRE artist struck gold again with “Rolando (Caught In The Rain)” (72 million Spotify streams) and “ROLLIN N CONTROLLIN PT. 2 (PICTURE ME),” which generated over 152k video creations on TikTok.
Beyond the hits, UNTAMED introduces new bangers like the apocalyptic, guitar-flecked “ICED OUT,” and the Canarsie neighborhood theme song “FLOSS STATE OF MIND.” Featuring appearances from Yung Bleu, OBN Jay, Rah Swish, and more, UNTAMED is available everywhere via EMPIRE.

The Background:
“It was all in front of me; I just had to go get it,” DUSTY LOCANE says at the beginning of his viral drill heater, “Rolando (Caught In The Rain).” That’s an understatement: less than a year after he started rapping, the gruff-voiced, baby-faced Brooklyn spitter has experienced one of the most meteoric rises in recent rap history. He’s only released three songs, and he’s already a star: his breakout song “R60LLXN N CONTROLLIN” went viral instantly, and its follow-up “Rolando” garnered 1 million video plays and 1 million streams in its first week. The world is closely watching Dusty, and he’s ready to deliver.
