]]> According to his lyrics, DLRN does what the f— he wants. And in the new video for his debut single “Just Be Chillin,” he’s flexing that rebellious spirit in a bunch of insane situations– from relaxing on the hood of his uber on the 405 freeway while rush hour traffic speeds around him, to riding a horse in his pajamas—while he remains unbothered!

DLRN has admitted in interviews that he prefers to spend his time in the streets more than in the studio…but that didn’t stop him from going in when it came to the creative vision of this video. DLRN selected visual metaphors that expressed his calm-amidst-the-chaos personality, and let us know that no matter what, he “just be chillin.” I’m on some west coast shit, just hanging / Middle fingers up for everybody that be hatin / I’m feelin like the one if you ever seen the Matrix / Turn into Liam Neeson if she tell me that she taken. Follow for more @DLRNOfficial .

]]> When you think of the West Coast, artists like YG and Kendrick Lamar come to mind immediately. But the West is back again with a new flavor, and his name is DLRN (pronounced Da-lor-in). The Sacramento-based rapper/songwriter is the newest face of California’s rap scene, entering with his new single “Just Be Chillin.”

This single is DLRN’s life philosophy. In the lyrics to this danceable track, DLRN plays the lowkey observer, taking in life’s extremes without killing the vibe: I’m on some west coast s***, just hanging / Middle fingers up for everybody that be hatin / I’m feelin like the one if you ever seen the Matrix / Turn into Liam Neeson if she tell me that she taken.

Odd Future affiliate Casey Veggies and Kanye West collaborator Cyhi The Prynce have worked with DLRN on a previous mixtape, and now the artist is prepping to release his first major-label project. We’re looking forward to seeing what else comes from this talented west coast artist!
