VIDEO: MAYER HAWTHORNE – I WISH IT WOULD RAIN

Yes! Mayer Hawthorne’s “I Wish It Would Rain“. This song is dope and the video is equally as dope. Can you believe how stellar this man’s rise has been? He gives me hope that there’s still a viable lane for dope music to win.

FOOTAGE: THE MAKING OF WAAJEED’S REMIX OF MAYER HAWTHORNE’S “GREEN EYED LOVE”

The good folks at Bling47 drop by some video footage of the construction of Waajeed x Mayer Hawthorne’s “Green Eyed Love” remix. And if you haven’t heard it yet, check out the stream below…

I’ll let them tell it:

Waajeed takes you into the production process for his remix of Mayer Hawthorne’s latest single, “Green Eyed Love”. Filmed and edited by Waajeed himself, he takes us on a personal trip to uncover how the bright lights and crowded streets in New York City’s own Times Square served as inspiration. Track by track, instrument by instrument we watch how the music unfolds to a final composition.
