The South London rapper endeavors to cover issues that relate to the daily lives of his audience and encourages them to connect with the track on a personal level.
The loneliness encountered by the artist whilst traversing this internal struggle is captured perfectly by the theatrical monochrome visuals for the track, directed by Miloflembo and Dir Lx, who “wanted to make the viewer ask questions, with many hidden meanings behind each scene” explaining that “the whole story is not what it would seem.”
Both directors worked with BENJAMIN A.D. on his last single, Monster’s Ball, with Dir Lx being known for his numerous SBTV freestyles. The film noir-style video fits perfectly with the eloquent rhymes and tight production of the track and received praise from the likes of The Source and RWD.

After ten years in the business, JAKE ALDRIDGE has just released his ‘best work yet’, Pieces Of Me, featuring long-time friend and vocalist Kelly Jenns.
2015 has been a busy year for the Suffolk-based R&B/hip-hop artist. The 27-year-old has seen his music video for previous single, Give You The World, which was filmed in Spain, go to number one on the VTYO video charts.
He has signed a publishing deal with Leopard Music, a synchronization deal with Go DIY Records and also secured a sponsorship deal with Asian-based RudeBoy Clothing Line. The smooth operator also became the first artist outside of the US to win a feature competition hosted by music blog, Daily Hip Hop Jamz, receiving more votes than anyone else.
Known for his heartfelt delivery over smooth rhythms, Jake’s music career came unexpectedly after losing his father at just 11 years old and eventually turned to his diary as a way to cope with his grief. He started out with a £12 microphone and a pop shield made from a sock.
Judging from his impressive CV, he’s come a very long way! Pieces Of Me is available via iTunes.
