On the heels of his new solo album announcement coinciding with the release of the project’s lead single last week, the Mob’s own Glock Rivers drops off a nostalgic New York-centric hip-hop music video for “Strapped.” The song was produced by long-time collaborator A$AP P On The Boards who managed to flip Sampha’s “Beneath The Tree” into a smooth 3-minute rap boom-bap orchestra of sorts.
