Big Shug – “Stay The Course” (Prod. By Elevated Music) [Video]
Stay focused. No time for hocus pocus. Attack like locusts…
Shug makes you wanna lean in and listen when he has the mic. And it ain’t always the raps. Bet money the dude who taught Guru how to rhyme got words for your behind! Even when Big Shug is just talking,it’s the realest talk #BigShug #BARZ #JustOneZ #DontSleep
Hit the streets of Boston with the city’s own legendary Big Shug in his slick new video for “Stay The Course,†a soulful and contemplative burner off his new LP, The Diamond Report.
Featuring direction from Ill Mannered Films (Redman, Cypress Hill), the video centers on the Gang Starr Foundation member and, more importantly, his rhymes. While there are some clever edits and additional touches that bring life to the visuals, they mostly serve to send home the message in Shug’s words.
He brings wisdom and positivity with his bars that essentially advise the listener to learn from life’s obstacles and just keep it moving forward. There’s an authentic and personable level of clarity to the entire track that makes Shug’s lyrics resonate that much more. Plus, it’s all backed by a great instrumental produced by Elevated Music, who’s joined on The Diamond Report by DJ Premier, Lil Fame, Reel Drama and Kid Called Quest, among others.
