NEW MUSIC | EVIDENCE DROPS HIS NEW EMOTIONALLY CHARGED VISUAL ‘TAYLOR MADE SUIT’

By Rishma Dhaliwal • On What is New

Los Angeles-based, world-renowned hip-hop luminary Evid­ence unveils an emo­tion­ally charged new music video for his latest single “Taylor Made Suit.” The song remains a standout from his crit­ic­ally acclaimed fourth solo stu­dio album, Unlearn­ing Vol. 1, avail­able now via Rhymesay­ers Enter­tain­ment.

In the visu­al dir­ec­ted and edited by fre­quent col­lab­or­at­or Steph­en Vanasco, Evid­ence raps to his own reflec­tion. Hazy vign­ettes track him through the desert and under palm trees until one final clos­eup focuses on him in the tit­u­lar suit.

The cryptic nature of the visu­al amp­li­fies the emo­tion­al heft of lyr­ics such as “Funer­al suit same as my wed­ding suit, I only got one” and “Had a close homie tell me, don’t write my life and write some happy shit, like what keeps me up at night is aver­age.” The track dir­ectly addresses the death of his son’s moth­er as he affirms, “I’m Mr. Mom to any­body who’s been keep­ing up,” before he holds back tears to assure his boy, “Your momma’s in heav­en.”

Pro­duced by V Don, “Taylor Made Suit” remains the center­piece of Unlearn­ing Vol. 1 and show­cases anoth­er side of the élite MC. It also fol­lows on the heels of his music video for “Lost In Time (Park Jams).” The lat­ter has already racked up 143K You­Tube views and count­ing, whileInsom­ni­ac Magazine described it as “bril­liant.” Stay tuned for more to come!

 Evidence’s uncanny abil­ity to col­lab­or­ate with a wide range of pro­du­cers and still deliv­er a cohes­ive album. A small but power­ful cast of guest appear­ances dec­or­ate the album’s sound­scape, with Boldy James, Con­way The Machine, Fly Ana­kin, Navy Blue, and Murk­age Dave each hold­ing their own along­side Evid­ence.
