The next 12-18 months are going to be huge for south London spitter Che Lingo. With a new EP, Better Versions, due Sept. 9 via Ditto and the introspective titular single breaking into the iTunes hip-hop chart on the strength of pre-orders alone, the stage is set for a breakneck ascendancy to the top. Frankly, with this much buzz, Lingo needn't worry too much about promotion, but that hasn't stopped him whipping up some ultra-slick and nimble visuals for "Better Versions", the track everyone is falling over themselves to own. The track's space-age funk production and Che's melodic, soul-searching bars are matched tastefully with some nimble, visually rich scenes from around the city—the perfect treatment for this soon-to-be-star. Watch the Noble People-directed video above.
