Vince Staples Holds Open The Screen Door & Welcomes Us Into His World (Video)
Vince Staples made a big dent in 2014. His Def Jam Records debut, Hell Can Wait, was a critical and fan favorite of the year, as the Long Beach, California MC added to the emerging youthful narratives from his close associates Odd Future and Mac Miller.
“Screen Door” was a centerpiece of the EP, showing Vince’s sensibilities to ’90s Hip-Hop, while telling a raw, open, and unflinching story about where he comes from. Stylized, the visual builds upon that. Drug addicts, testimony, and urgency drive the narrative of Staples telling Heads about his former life. Hagler provides a simple, but effective beat.
Is Vince Staples a lasting MC in the current class?
