Off his highly acclaimed project that’s been making a lot of noise in New York, “Gods x Pimps,” (available for download here) History is back dropping the anticipated video for “EVIL!“. Featuring a stand-out verse from his fellow Mogul Club member, King Critical, the duo put together an impactful and extremely emotionally-driven lyrics over the thundering of the instrumental.
Produced by H. Illa (the alternate producer name History goes by), the extreme energy is filled with subject matter commenting on subjects such as negative cycles within their Brooklyn hoods, questioning true faith in religion, scandalous women, and overall staking claim of their place in Hip Hop while boasting their lyrical prowess.

The video was directed was also shot and edited by J-Emz, another up-and-coming New York based director that his been making a name for himself lately. This is what History had to say about the initial creation of the record:

Creating the record I didn’t care about anything and hated everything going on at that time in life so the only thing that could sum up the way I felt was saying “That’s Evil!”, everything followed after that. I felt like King Critical was the only person that could make the song better than it actually was so I put him on the song. Even though he didn’t want to hop on it at first, I convinced him that the beat and song was ahead of it time and he ended up doing the verse anyway and now we have a quote on quote hit.

Let us know what you think about the video and be sure to show up to their December 10th show at SOB’s (info).
