Live Review: WATCH: Danny Brown 'ODB' (Official Video)

Watch the video for DANNY BROWN'S latest track 'ODB' from his upcoming album 'OLD'.

Shortly after casually dropping info on the release date for his second album entitled 'OLD', Detroit rapper DANNY BROWN has gone dirtier and darker than ever before in his new clip for 'ODB'.

If it wasn't obvious enough already, the track 'ODB' is both a homage and testament to the late, great Ol' Dirty Bastard of the Wu-Tang Clan. Straight down to the lyrical style and visual imagery, DANNY gets real close to the legend whilst still upholding his signature attitude and vocal flow.

Directed & edited by RUFFMERCY, the visuals compliment the emotion of the track perfectly by translating the brooding sensibilities of the rapper into a visual form. Manipulating DANNY BROWN'S presence and figure through scratchy scrawlings of frenetic animation, the video pulls the instrumentation of the track into another dimension. The track slides from lows to highs whilst DANNY'S face and body stretch into and out of proportion.

DANNY BROWN'S second album 'OLD' will be launching on Sept 30th worldwide via Fool's Gold Records, and will be featuring artists such as Freddie Gibbs, Schoolboy Q, A$AP Rocky and Purity Ring.
