Shortly after announcing his upcoming new album, Children of the Slums, Mozzy delivers his music video for his song “Jaded” alongside fellow West Coast native, Eric Bellinger.
In the video, Mozzy and Eric Bellinger deliver their sermons in a church, proselytizing at the pulpit and pouring their heart out in the confession booth. On his two verses, Mozzy rhymes about the responsibility he feels as one of the few who made it out of Oak Park.
Adorned with plaintive piano and distorted vocal samples, “Jaded” is a heartbreaking anthem about the difficulty of overcoming personal demons while shouldering the burdens of a community.
