The two English rappers team up for an eccentric and chaotic video.
Pa Salieu features slowthai on his new track “Glidin’,” which has been given a vibrant visual directed by KC Locke, who has worked with Headie One and Stormzy. The video pictures the two MCs totally in control of their destiny, whether in a cell, a lounge or surrounded by dancers: “It’s an eye for an eye and I’m not blind yet.”
This is Pa Salieu’s first single since his lauded album and his BBC Music’s Sound of 2021 award. Yet the young rapper seems to have kept his head on his shoulders. A few months ago he told PAM: “My career is building, I love making music, but to tell you the truth, I’m learning how to make music. I’m in the study phase. From a musical standpoint, I think I still need a little push and motivation to boost my confidence.”
