Double Dose Of Lana Del Rey & A$AP Rocky With “Ridin” & “National Anthem” (Video & Download)Posted by Danielle Harling on 06/28/12 | Filed under Downloads, Videos, ASAP Rocky, Lana Del Ray |
Now this is actually a really dope music video. Yeah, A$AP Rocky is playing the role of the legendary John F. Kennedy, but it's done in a way that's both creative and respectful. The gold grill and early 90's braids are still present, but I guess there has to be a little swag in the video. And Lana Del Rey is surprisingly convincing as a much sultrier version of Jackie Kennedy. I'm sure the "National Anthem" video will rustle a few feathers, but I really don't see them crossing the line too much with this one.
On top of their "National Anthem" video the duo also released their much anticipated track "Ridin" which is produced by The Kickdrums. Is "Ridin" one smooth a** song? Hell yea. Is A$AP Rocky a lyrical mastermind on the song? Not so much. The Kickdrums killed the production on "Ridin" and the addition of Lana Del Rey seems like perfect touch. Overall "Ridin" makes for a great summer song to chill to.
UPDATE: Apparently "Riding" was leaked and both ASAP and The Kickdrums are pissedS. So...there's that.
