The self-produced and self-releasing hip-hop artist Chazmere reminds us what that NYC hustle is all about with his new music video for “Ten,” streaming now on Okayplayer. The video features collaborator and fellow NYC Native ScienZe (@dopescienze). “Ten” finds the artist blending hallowing tracks and spot on lyrical prowess with real world imagery creating a completely immersive listening experience; another taste of the upcoming self-titled album, out June 10.

“Ten” follows Chazmere and ScienZe through the streets and subways of New York City. Different tableaux portray real lives of young artists busking to make a living with their craft. As the director and writer himself, Chazmere hand-picked the performers personally to convey his message of “being ten all the time; never nine”: “The dancers are some of the best I’ve ever seen Uptown. Everyone knows of them. The harp player, Elsz, is an artist I’m collaborating with from Australia.”
