Serious Klein - Down [Video]

Serious Klein raps amongst blue butterflies in the visual for his artful banger ‘Down’.

Eclectic elements taken from the sounds of soul, hip-hop and R&B twist together as one for German-Ghanaian rapper Serious Klein’s cool and contemporary vibe. Understated yet highly catchy, ‘Down’ has a pleasingly paced beat that lays down a solid, grooving foundation for Klein’s melodic and effortless verses to trickle along to nicely. The track’s hypnotic chorus slots perfectly into its thumping rhythm with the simple yet effective lyrics, “down, down, down, take you down.”

A solid match for the sleek but pared down single, Down’s music video has a strong, seductive look to it. With shots adorned by blue butterflies, it offers an intriguing, artistically informed take on the sensual glamour pervading typical R&B visuals, turning the look - just an inch - to give this classic aesthetic a thoroughly modern and stylish feel.
