Mr Ekow in the pantheon of hip-hop history
Sputnik and our Patrons contributed towards the production costs of Mr Ekow's epic new video - where he flexes his credentials paying tribute to the iconic classics of the past
Chris Gaisie, a.k.a. Mr Ekow, has long been a Sputnik favourite, both for his musical output and his tenacity, determination and creativity.
At Sputnik Patrons we’re incredibly proud to have supported the video production of Mr Ekow’s new single, I Am Hip Hop – a no-holds barred demonstration of the man’s serious lyrical skill. For the video, Ekow and director Matt Bowie recreate a whole ton of classic hip-hop videos, from Missy Elliot to the Pharcyde, to Dizzee Rascal, to Tyler the Creator – placing Mr Ekow in the pantheon of hip-hop greats with gravitas and goofy humour in equal parts.
It’s a killer video, and we highly recommend you watch the whole thing below and go support Mr Ekow’s music.
