MUSIC VIDEO: Dirty Up – “Aimless”

Instrumental hip-hop producer Dirty Up has debuted a phenomenal new single, entitled “Aimless,” with tripped-out visuals to match that can be found after the jump. Featuring an immersive atmosphere composed of down-pitched vocals and the occasional fluttering of snares along with a thundering bassline and blissful samples, the cut is quite possibly the Boone-based artist’s […]

WATCH: Kanye West Performs Medley Of Hits On ‘Late Night With Seth Meyers’

Given Kanye West‘s tendency to shy away from televised performances during the Yeezus album cycle, it’s been fascinating to see how the new songs translate into the finicky, live-for-TV setting.
