VIDEO: KOOLEY HIGH – SOMETHIN’ OUTTA NOTHIN’ FEAT. MEDIAN

Since its release, Eastern Standard Time has been charming listeners with its soulful mixture of hip-hop and jazz, and with the debut video, “Somethin’ Outta Nothin’,” a recent single from the album that features fellow North Carolina rapper Median. Kooley High adorns these sounds with introspective imagery to compliment the smooth cut, while the video, directed by Frank Sun,utilizes understated yet effective special effects to compliment the laid back beat from Foolery and vocals from Tab-One, Charlie Smarts, and Median.
