Hodgy Reminisces About Darker Days in “I’ll Be Good” Visual

Jon Powell — Tue, 31 Oct 2017 00:26:07 +0000

When it comes to Odd Future, core member Hodgy (Beats) definitely has one of the larger roller coaster stories. He only released his debut album, Fireplace: TheNotTheOtherside, in 2016…virtual worlds away from his time as a part of MellowHype and MellowHigh. Last week, he followed that release with a new cut titled (and visual for) “I’ll Be Good,” which sees him reaching back to darker times. The clip — directed by Sean Stanton and Juan Felipe Zuleta — matches that atmosphere with Hodgy in a hospital while cloned representatives of himself play out his (presumed) past moments.

Check out the introspective video/track above.

Hodgy Brings Us into a World of Animation in “Glory”

Odd future, offspring Hodgy comes out to shine with some new visuals off of his 2016 debut solo album Fireplace Nottheotherside, which features Lil Wayne, Busta Rhymes and upcoming french emcee, Salomon Faye.

“Glory” is directed by Open the Portal and takes us on a journey through the life of the California emcee quickly making the transition into animation and the real world with hard-hitting lyrics. This song definitely makes for a great story. Joining on this stand out track for the production is the legendary producer, HI-Tek.

Hodgy released a press release describing “Glory” as an introspective animation, through the lens of a view finder.

“Addressing internal challenges and new found growth, I recognized, a change was at hand. The video’s execution was something I was bound to reach with an amazing collective, ‘Open The Portal.’ & I would arrive at their DTLA workspace with Trenton, where we created a chemical synergy, bringing us to the video’s treatment and later on, product.”

Enjoy “Glory” below.

The kids were lined up since 2am, Supreme hats reigned supreme and Odd Future popped up on the Lower East Side. Tyler started off the afternoon ringing up ecstatic customers behind the counter as the rest of the crew complained about the heat, danced to Lil’ B and enjoyed a day of general craziness and crowds around the store. Oh, and Earl was there. Surprise! We’re hoping for a little guest appearance at tonights show. Security was tight, but RESPECT. got a few pics of the homies.

And here’s Earl…
