Jelani Blackman Reminds Us He's Got Nothing To Prove On "Hello"

Jelani Blackman Reminds Us He's Got Nothing To Prove On "Hello"


October 21, 2020

Following a standout performance for COLORS, Jelani Blackman is back with visuals for "Hello".

Decked out in clean whites under a sun that feels like a distant memory right now, Jelani struts through the streets of London with a noticeable swagger. Flexing his lyrical muscle, he lays out metaphor-rich bars and stylish flows in his trademark baritone voice.

The Tom Stafford instrumental is a mellow affair, graced with a flute melody and a scent of grime that gives Jelani the space to spit with an unshakeable nonchalance. Been here since Ghetts was Ghetto, he says, painting a picture of a seasoned vet who's more than earned his stripes in the game.

Check out the Sam Taylor-directed visuals below.
