Jidenna - “Long Live The Chief” (Official Video )

Jidenna came to us by way of “Classic Man” a break-out single that was later remixed with a Kendrick Lamar feature and honored as our own Tom Breihan’s favorite song of the year. Jidenna is a Janelle associate and Monáe member of the Wondaland Arts Society, and his song “Long Live The Chief” was released on their recent EP, Wondaland Presents: The Eephus. It was never released as a single, but now there’s an excellent video for the track. Jidenna joins a funeral procession to perform a series of hyper-choreographed dances. It’s all filmed in black and white with a few striking red accents.
