Video: Heems - "Soup Boys (Pretty Drones)"

From his solo tour somewhere in Asia, Heems launches the video for "Soup Boys (Pretty Drones)" into this brave new post-Das Racist world we're all living in now. Consolidating his affiliation with GQ India (sidebar: can that be my new crew name?) who have their branding all over this chumpy, Heems files his dispatches from a series of hotel rooms and McDonalds in New Delhi and points east, looking wild jet-lagged and possibly coked out. In between we get some electrifying (literally) performance shots from an open-air stageshow and some random kids on bikes (The Soup Boys, I presume) on the side of a highway somewhere in South Asia. All of which is to say it's a more intense immersion into the experience of being Heems than you might have been ready for when you clicked play, but it somehow works perfectly as a counterpoint to his sugar-cones-and-paranoia rhymes over the most viral Tollywood beat in history--watch below, read my post on the audio track here for the Bollywood backstory and get the full Wild Water Kingdom mixtape here.
