Shabazz Palaces – “An Echo From The Hosts That Profess Infinitum”

Black Up, the first full-length from Seattle art-rap enigmas Shabazz Palaces, is two years old now, but they’ve only just released a video for the album track “An Echo From The Hosts That Profess Infinitum.” The stark black-and-white clip, from director Joris Grelet, stars a pair of stylish masked ninja figures, guys who wield katanas and molotov cocktails and who dress with more flair than anyone you know.
