Sa-Roc has been putting out quality Hip-Hop music for a decade as of this year. And with 13 projects in that time, she stays working on her craft. Roc is dedicated to both mic mastery and self-realization, and her music reflects both pursuits. Now, while she didn’t drop a full-length last year, she was touring with Brother Ali and recording songs for her next opus, Forever. She’s been signed to Rhymesayers since 2015 and has put music out with the Twin Cities label, but Forever will be her first official studio album with the cult imprint co-founded by Atmosphere’s Slug and Ant.
Her latest video is the lead single from the upcoming LP. It’s hard not to be intrigued within the first few seconds of footage here. This outdoor spot looks almost surreal. The ochre and rust tones of the stratified earth contrasted with the white and red of Sa’s wardrobe is striking. This punchline specialist also brings along a team of goddesses, who all take turns sitting on a throne in front of a pitch black backdrop. It’s a cool juxtaposition to the fresh air visuals.
