District of Columbia rising emcee Uptown XO pushes his hype campaign for the upcoming Colour de Grey album dropping January 29th on Stones Throw Records with this legit visual for “Flowers.” He gets personal and welcomes us into his world of coming up and the struggle that proceeded it. He describes his city and gives it the props that are often overlooked in hip-hop history, and uses those facts as empowerment for his own ascension to the forefront of East Coast rap. Backie Thomas takes directorial credits and does a solid job of location scouting to provide XO the perfect place to accent his word-driven imagery. If this is any indication of what to expect from the new album then things are looking up for XO.
