Oakland, California rap collective Hieroglyphics premiered the second visual off of their soon-to-be-released album The Kitchen today on Rolling Stone. The video for “It’s Partly Me”, a comical clip about doomed relationships, shows the group as characters from the 1970s. Hiero member Pep Love explains that the latest visual “is like a throwback concept to blaxploitation movies from the ’70s…it’s a funny video.”
The group’s new album is their first studio album since 2003’s Full Circle. Sacramento DJs/producers The Sleeprockers worked on all 17 tracks of The Kitchen, which drops on July 16th.

Founded in 1997 in Oakland, CA, Hiero Imperium Records is Del The Funky Homosapien, Casual, Pep Love, Domino, and the Souls of Mischief, made up of A-Plus, Opio, Phesto and Tajai. Coming off waves of success from earlier releases like Souls’ ’93 Til Infinity, the Hiero crew had already established themselves as a name in mainstream and underground hip-hop, and soon released their first collective project Third Eye Vision. Since then the Hiero team has been thriving in the hip-hop world, releasing a number of projects within the label as well as branching out for collaborations with the likes of Jurassic 5, George Clinton, Dilated Peoples, Q-Tip, Xzibit and Gorillaz.
