Serving up one of the slickest videos of the year, multi-faceted hip hop artist Undertow releases fresh visuals for his single ‘On Sight’ filmed by Kenna Filmz released via Likeminded Recordings.

The single was written over a period of time pre/post COVID, and is about his life and how the rapper lived, whether it was good or bad, he just keep moving forward. It references things that were happening at the time of the writing.

He goes on to say, “Friends were going through various struggles, from breakups to heart-attacks, this song is about how I perceived that at the time and how that affected me. From an artistic point of view, the track is about doing what you want, maintaining your vision and integrity. Don't abide by the rules with art as it's an expression of yourself,”

The message is no matter how buried you are in life, mental thoughts, day to day hardship, and how down you feel, you just need to push on and get what you came here for,
