Boston emcee G.O. releases his debut video in “Dreamin’,” a follow up to the Oddisee and Fashawn assisted “I Wish.” The video for the Phenom-produced track was shot out in California by Brian Beckwith and directed/edited by Matt Arnold. The artist had this to say about the treatment for the visual:

The storyline of “Dreamin’” revolves around the journey of an illegal immigrant to America. Being Hispanic, G.O. shows the contrast between a dream that many immigrants like his parents had or have, visually, and his own dream, lyrically; but at the same time, shows the similarity of the two through the magnitude of struggle and importance based off of what these two completely different dreams represent to two completely different people. 

“Dreamin'” will appear on G.O.’s forthcoming debut project, The Hope. Watch the video below and stay tuned for future releases from the talented lyricist.

G.O. continues to build towards his sophomore mixtape The Hope with a new track titled “Do Somethin.” The Boston upstart links up with go-to producer Phenom, who is behind his beginning of the year EP, Throwaway Diamonds. Over soulfully sampled production, he offers a few words to anyone that is complaining about their situation and not doing anything to change it.

At the beginning of the year, G.O. surprised fans with a promotional project in his Throwaway Diamonds EP that was well-received due to its strong lyricism and throwback production by Phenom. Weeks later, the Boston emcee returns with a new loosie titled “Want You.”

The Danny McClain assisted track jumpstarts a wave of new music from G.O. as he continues to build towards his official debut project, The Hope, due out this summer. With jazzy production from DJ Jet V and a smooth hook from his guest vocalist, G.O. brings forth a relatable record that features him delivering honest and heartfelt lyrics about losing a former lover.
