$lick - "Let Me Be" (Video)

 

Colorado emcee $lick presents the Wiz Kelly-directed music video for "Let Me Be", the 2and2-produced single from $lick's forthcoming album Put It Together. The 22-year-old Denver native has been making what he describes as "thinking man's music" for two years, and takes his inspiration from underground greats like Dilla, Madlib, DOOM and Ghostface Killah. He says his new single is about "frequently feeling overwhelmed by the demands of society and faulty people. 'Let Me Be' is about trying to stay down to earth."
