Ian Kamau drops the first of 3 visuals for his cover of City & Colour’s “The Girl” – originally recorded for his Love & Other Struggles mixtape.

The first time I heard this song it was sung by my friend Julian Caspari, a director at Schools Without Borders. He sang it for his then girlfriend, now fiance, Courtney at a retreat we went on in West Virginia (ya.. I’ve been to West Virginia). I appreciated the words to the song and it’s sentiment, found the song and played it consistently for weeks. When I was finishing the recording of Love & Other Struggles I realized that ‘The Girl’ was committed to memory and recorded it one day acapella. I later decided to put it on the mixtape. This video and the two that come after it will be the last visuals that I release from the mixtape before heading into album material (digital release date: Oct 7). Special thanks to Rakhi Mutta and her parents (Baldev {the ED of Punjabi Community Health Services} and Harjeet) for supporting the vision by letting mr. Nabil Shash (the director) into their home and Dallas Green for writing a beautiful song.

D-Sisive hops on a Deadmau5 beat and embarks on a 3min 42sec experiment in self-sabotage.

Will this song, in his own words: “…go viral, become a smash hit and completely destroy his credibility as a respected, underground rapper..”?

Time will tell my friend.. time will tell.

“Run With The Creeps” drops November 1st.
