Toronto artist DillanPonders has dropped a new video off his latest project, MATRIX.
“SAMSON” was produced by Kevin Rolly, who recently partnered with Sayzee for the Holy Smoke EP.
You can check out the Brett Pedersen and Robbie Aitken-directed video below along with the press release.
“It’s evident that Ponders isn’t slowing anytime soon, and why should he? He consistently drops quality tracks and always has something to actually say.” – Exclaim!, June 2018
MATRIX is available on various streaming platforms including Spotify and Apple Music. Click here to take in the full project.
DillanPonders Premieres ‘SAMSON’ Video
Last month, DillanPonders gave the world MATRIX. Today, Ponders delivers a music video for ‘SAMSON,’ the album’s lead single.
Hazy and archaic, the video for the Kevin Rolly-produced goliath sees Ponders at a hazy party with angels, demons and masked creatures, melting away into an almost unrecognizable pile of ooze.
The song itself is a behemoth and rightfully claims its own space from the start. Atop thick, full bells and lush 808s, Ponders seamlessly switches back and forth from his signature multiple flows.
On bars like “Wanna see a change? Stop watching the news / Stay true to yourself and you’ll be a better man” and “Your girl wants me to sign her tits / Your man wants me to sign his kicks / I don’t know where to draw the line / Maybe when they ask me to sign their kids,” Ponders blends both insightful and comedic lines together into one exciting package.
Ponders recently brought this flair with him on tour with Pouya. Brandishing his music like a weapon, he incited riots inside every venue and left fans demanding more from ‘SHROOM DADDY,’ as they infectiously call him. Stay tuned for the full length tour recap releasing soon!
