Tree Plays Lonely Piano in ‘Godlike’ Video
Ever wondered what modern rap would sound like in a speakeasy? Tree shows you on 'God Like,' the second video from his stunning last project, '@MCTREEG EP,' courtesy of Scion AV.
Tree brings his dopest characteristics to the table with his scruffy, pained delivery, and the visual boasts no frills as the Chicago MC fingers the piano in between cigarette pulls, dressed like an extra from 'Reservoir Dogs.'
The video matches his music's aesthetic - pared down, emotional, personal. There is no buzz, no star-studded co-signs or big name cameos. Tree stands out with his peerless brand of 'Soul Trap' and the video communicates that - it's just Tree in a room with a microphone and a piano. What more do you really need?
