Today, Camden wordsmith AWATE shares the visuals for "Brutalism", taken from his forthcoming album Happiness (due out Feb. 16). 2016's Shine Ancient EP served as a welcome intro to the sounds and stylings of AWATE, and in presenting his highly-anticipated debut album, he digs deeper into his psyche to present a fuller picture.
Filmed at the Utopia installation at The Roundhouse—a collaboration between award-winning filmmaker Penny Woolcock and designers Block9—the rapper commands the stage over an eerie boom-bap beat; weaving his story of trauma and inner-city coming-of-age, production is handled by frequent collaborator Turkish.
Peep the visuals exclusively above.
