Seattle’s MoneyReece Laflare grew up with hardships surrounding him, so the onset of the quarantine has only put him into full grind mode. He recently linked up with Clemm Rishad to create an inspiring cut called “Grind Harder” to remind us what’s important. MoneyReece has been putting in crazy work, just recently dropping his visuals with Bishop Bear for “Jamaica” earlier this month. “Grind Harder” is a leading single off of his upcoming project Trapathon Don that’s sure to continue to showcase his diversity in beat selection and hefty relatable bars.
The visuals for “Grind Harder” put an especially melancholy lens on the current situation in the world with COVID-19. Black and white palettes and shots of the neighborhood emphasize the message Laflare and Clemm are giving us. Atuanya Priester took the vibes to another level with their directorial vision and engaging shots. The video illustrates growing up in a hard place with family and friends already in the grave and lacking the bare essentials at home.
