YG's debut album My Krazy Life has been called by more than one critic the best hip-hop album of 2014so far, and the thing that makes it so great is the Compton rapper's compelling storytelling.
Four videos into telling his story of life in the California streets, YG takes us through a day in the life in his visual for "Bicken Back Being Bool."
The video, directed by Alex Nazari, captures as Vibe magazine puts it "YG and the homies enjoying life before some real life gangsta ish pops off."
Check out the clip below.
