King Von is the streets raconteur.
Widely-known for his visceral pen game and prowess as a narrator, the OTF (Only The Family) signee is quickly becoming one of rap’s favorite lyricist. With his latest music video for ‘How It Go’, Von offers perspective on the legal system and the hardship that comes with incarceration.
The Jerry PHD (Jerry Production) visual takes viewers down a path of isolation. Your back is against the wall, with no one on the receiving end of that dial tone. You feel hopeless, almost like the world has forgotten that you even existed. And if you just so happen to make it out, you can’t afford to go back – willing to do anything under the sun in order to numb the pain caused by your absence.
From walking on eggshells post-release, to living in a figurative hell with trying to avoid the streets’ deadly grip, ‘How It Go’ is an uncanny truth that spotlights the legal systems’ flawed approach towards rehabilitation. How can the world expect for someone to look towards a brighter future when they are constantly reminded of their past?
Everyone deserves a chance to show that change is plausible, but when unfinished business meets opportunity, there’s no telling what a man will or will not do for some get back – and the cycle repeats.
