Ty Dolla $ign - “Violent” (Official Video)

Tomorrow, Ty Dolla $ign releases his long-awaited Free TC album. I’ve heard it, and it’s very good. But before that, as Miss Info points out, he’s just released a kinetic, low-tech new video for “Violent,” one of the songs from the Airplane Mode mixtape that he released a couple of weeks ago. Gabe Shaddow directed the video, which mostly mixes murky live-performance video with totally unnecessary clips from many of the police shootings that have been in the news lately. But the live footage is cool, because it’s got all these images of Ty$ singing in front of huge and very excitable crowds. Where are these huge circle pits happening? Is that just what Wiz Khalifa shows look like these days?
