Fresh off the release of his brand new album, The Emperor’s New Clothes, Raekwon unleashes the video for “Bear Hill”.
Directed by James Gerde, Tyler Bernabe, and Raekwon, the black-and-white clip finds the Staten Island rapper slowly transforming into a beast before stepping into a rap battle. He raps, “Jaws filled, this star hill, the dope from Park Hill / Where fiends walk walls and cartwheels / Yeah, I’m not your average type rapper / Check my batting average, cat, I’m a snapper.”
The Emperor’s News Clothes marks Raekwon’s first solo album since his 2017 The Wild. Featuring 17 tracks in total, the album includes collaborations from Ghostface Killah, Method Man, Inspectah Deck, Nas, Marsha Ambrosius, Conway The Machine, Benny The Butcher, Westside Gunn, and more.
