Following the release of Eli, the second single marking Fireboy DML’s single run, he cushions it by sharing its dramatic video this week. Reminiscent of the oriental elements that gave life to the earlier released video for his hit single, King, the Clarence Peters directed video is built on more oriental elements that mirror the foreign sound Fireboy experiments with on the midtempo love ballad.
Playing to his cryptic persona and the mysterious nature of the song, the colorful and busy video rife with heady vignettes also speaks to his penchant for multicultural hybrids and his need to remain unique in an industry that’s producing like-minds in large numbers on a daily basis.
