Queens, New York rapper Homeboy Sandman has a new album, Kindness For Weakness, which was produced by Edan and is due out May 6 on Stones Throw Records. Today The FADER is premiering the video for "Talking (Bleep)," a super smart, groovy track with a wild 'n goofy chase video.
"Edan had the ill beat and was like, 'Yo, this sounds kinda like when people talk mad shit, you should speak on that.' I was like word. The onslaught of people talking mad copious amounts of shit is the ongoing barrage. That's what the video is about."
Sandman will be going on tour with Aesop Rock, which you can peep dates for below. Preorder Kindness For Weakness here.
