Duckwrth Displays A Rare Type of Love In New Double-Single Video

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

A few weeks back, L.A. emcee Duckwrth held his album release show for his forthcoming album, I’M UUGLY. While I was already anticipating the project, I must say the live performance of all 10-tracks allowed me to appreciate his work that much more. To me, no tracks stood out more than #4 and #5 “Rare Panther” and “Beach House,” which he conveniently released as a double single last month - tonight, we get the visuals to match. Says Duckwrth of the video:

In this world of filtered affection & 30 second relationships, love has become a rarity; especially acts of love on public display… So let this visual PDA serve as a testament of LOVE, showing its UUGLY face to those who try to place filters on it.  BE RARE.

Video directed by Lino Brown. Duckwrth’s I’M UUGLY will be out September 23rd (pre-order).
