Bucky Malone isn’t playing games on ‘Candyland.’ Regardless of the title, ‘Candyland’s’ tone and messages are anything but sweet. Smoke, mirrors, a gorgeous vixen licking an economy size lollipop, and a trippy x-ray style, negative affect culminate to create a visual that’s simplicity and appeal go hand in hand. Directed by Kelow (who’s also an incredible artist in her own right) and from his ‘The Time Is 7:03’ project, ‘Candy Land’ is an ode to the braggadocios; a lyrical and visual flexing where Malone makes heavy implication that you, the game, and especially your girl, are all in danger. “Your chic, sent a naked pic, she a dirty bit*c/you must tame her” basically sets the stage for Bucky’s slick talking narrative. Amazingly enough, (mostly because it couldn’t have been better timed and I love Chopped & Screwed sonics) the 1:29 mark of the video switches to a drowned-out, lo-fi chopped aesthetic that the late Chad Butler would certainly be proud of. While ‘Candyland’ is only shot in a few different angles/settings, Bucky’s charismatic temperament and knack for song writing, paired with crisp and concise frames lend way to an experience with major re-watch value.
