After dropping an impressive music video for the single “BLOOD WATER” off his EP Paradigm Shift 2020, burgeoning Brooklyn-based emcee Lawd P decided to up the ante by bringing us all on a journey to Tanzania for his latest set of visuals.
With “SECRETS OF THE DEEP,” P sought out to deliver a powerful message that speaks to people of color specifically, saying via a recent Instagram post, “Secrets of the deep is revealing thoughts that were bottled up,” further adding, “I use this place as a form of expression.” From his choice of colors and hues seen throughout the video to the actual words he drops in lyrical form, there’s something very enduring about the way Lawd P expresses his thought process when speaking about the ways of the world and the industry he’s trying to break into.

Quotable Lyrics:
This message for the brother on the corner trying to be a better person
Problems with his woman and committing and it’s hurting
Dreaming about leaving this hood, searching for a purpose
Cutting people off who be stopping them from working
Pull the string off of these puppets to close the curtains
Had to let you go ’cause your energy was a burden
