Video: Blue Scholars – Seijun Suzuki

This video was filmed in Los Angeles during the Southern California leg of the Cinemetropolis tour. Both the song as well as the video are inspired by Japanese filmmaker and screenwriter Seijun Suzuki. Get the album “Cinemetropolis” here if you haven’t already. For me personally it’s one of the best hip hop albums of 2011.

Geo: “I had become a fan of Jon Jon Augustavo‘s prolific and experimental work with Seattle rappers (…) I like that he refuses to call music videos ‘visuals.’ We thought that Seijun Suzuki, the most ‘random’ of the Cinemetropolis songs, would fit the improvised production style and clean shots of a Jon Jon video. Like a trailer for a movie that doesn’t exist.” More info on this video can be found here.
