South Texas-based artist Fatboyshaun has shared a new video for his track “Selassie”. The soulful, gritty new joint appears ahead of the release of his forthcoming project Blood on My Carhartt, and it provides a tasteful preview of the new record. Following up his well-received collaborative album Evil Twin with Ricky Mapes last year, the release of the new single and video (shot by tg_vision) finds him in his lane lyrically and vocally, underscored by textural production from A U R.
Hypnotic, raw soul samples consisting of swirling vocals, sparkling keys, and organic-sounding percussion underscore Fatboyshaun’s sharp flows. His lyricism is vivid and clever, beckoning many re-listens to catch everything, while his vocal presence on the mic captivates as he delivers dynamic verses. Laid-back yet brimming with confidence, “Selassie” presents an enticing preview of Fatboyshaun’s upcoming project Blood on My Carhartt.
