The tears cover the pain of Nutso’s brief but poignant examples of society’s dark sides coming to light.
Nutso’s not the first to broach such topics, but that in of itself is good news. Hip hop once was a conduit for storytellers to touch the lives of others, and if bringing light to these dark issues can help even one listener feel like they are not alone, or help them find ways to cope or intervene in a bad situation, than more power to those who aren’t afraid to speak on these issues.
“Pain” is from Nutso’s latest EP, I Plead the 5th, and is produced by 5th Seal. The video is directed by Javier Goin.
