Long-term fans of Shabazz Palaces will know that “Blast It” is not a new song; it was released on their self-titled EP. However this video isn’t really a new music video to promote the song, it features clips from an upcoming documentary called Tough Bond about kids in Kenya who sniff glue to help them get through surviving street life. The whole film will feature music by Shabazz Palaces. You can check out the trailer below.
In new Shabazz Palaces news, the new album, Black Up, due out on Sub Pop has unfortunately been pushed back to June 28th. You can check out a track from it and the cover art below though, if that helps.
