Melo - Neighbourhood Watch (Official Video)

From the album Age Appropriate "Neighbourhood Watch" is a call for vigilance , prompting the listener to keep an eye open not only for self but for neighbour as well. Using actual news-clip audio, the song begins by painting a picture of a crime riddled world, before delving into Melo's comical recounts of run-ins with the world of crooks. With a flow reminiscent of old school Ice Cube over some West Coast inspired instrumentation by Westbrook, the track vividly paints an existence that requires one to stay on their toes. The last third of the song crosses into a beat-switch, now handled by producer MVRTIN, which employs a modern trap-soul style beat with thumping drums to deliver the message that crime isn't always literal: sometimes crooks use lifestyle and influence as a means to cheat your existence. The lines "This is just a warning for all of you that visiting/ Be careful where you walk or you're caught in a trap slipping" Melo closes the lesson of what to be careful of and what to look out for while journeying through the city streets Written & Performed by Thuto " Melo" Pheto Beat 1: Soundsosick Westbrook Beat 2: MVRTIN Recorded and Engineered by Nephew at Bang!Gae Studios Music Video shot by Benstar Location: Passion Fruit, Phase 4 & Matrix Lounge, Block 6 Wardrobe by : Go Hard Clothing BW & Artist's Own This is NOT A SINGLE but a rollout segment for the project Age Appropriate #WenaWareng?
