Clairmont The Second reissues cinematic A Declaration video Quest For Milk And Honey (Black Edition) with four New Tracks out now
No Warm Up tour vlog webisodes now airing
(Toronto, ON): Teenaged Toronto-based rap phenomenon Clairmont The Second whose Quest for Milk and Honey album was recently voted one of the top 25 Canadian albums of 2016 (#17) by CBC Music has been spreading his unique rap stylings across North America since January 31st as part of the No Warm Up tour with SonReal. As a prelude to the forthcoming release of new music and visuals in 2017 with new label partner Black Box Music (Shad, Classified, SonReal) the re-issued co-directed “A Declaration” video clip by Jorden Lee and Clairmont The Second is one of those cinematic must-see music videos that reads more like a short film than anything, and contains a clever build-up and killer climax (literally). Uber respected on the Toronto music scene as a prolific one man music-and-multi-media army who shoots and edits his own video content, while writing, producing and mixing his own work, this song and video leaves no question as to where the future of Canadian rap creativity and resourcefulness lies. When he raps “me on a mic, that’s a problem” on this buzz track, he really means it.
To get inside the mind of the rapidly rising rapper who recently joined the roster of the Feldman Agency, Canada’s largest entertainment booking agency, Clairmont The Second has also just released a new vlog series that will present his arty, unscripted view of the tour as it winds its way through the United States and Canada. “You cannot box this show in. I mess with so many different styles…from the content, to the way I shoot it, to the technicality of the way I edit the videos,” says the artist who participated in Toronto’s first ever TeamBackPack Cypher last year, and was featured on a strong collaboration with Last Gang producer Harrison (“It’s Okay, I Promise”).”One episode could be completely different from the last episode and have a completely different focus or point to it”:
The Quest for Milk and Honey (Black Edition) reissue album out now on Black Box Music features four new bonus songs and is now streaming on Spotify and Apple Music: Spotify Apple
