STALLEY - FRESH LINEN (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

Ohio’s blue-collar beacon, Stalley premiered the official music video for “Fresh Linen,” exclusively on @REVOLT . The poignant melodic rap tune is the second single off Stalley’s forthcoming album, Somebody Up There Loves Me, out on December 6, 2022, released via Mello Music Group. “Fresh Linen” directed by the master class rapper himself, Stalley, and filmed by Bolo is a testament to Stalley’s meticulous craftsmanship. The MadKeys produced track is a soulful street gospel full of hard-earned wisdom. The video depicts Stalley as an entrepreneur laundromat owner, assisting his clientele while the bearded emcee drops dazzling bars. “We need leaders here, I’m just trying to be of the light and try to lead us there, a beacon of hope/On the uprise, never seeing the slope/Push against waves how we steering the boat, the tongue sharp like a sword is/Tearing your throat these words get chilly when reality spoke.” Stalley’s latest “Fresh Linen,” and upcoming Somebody Up There Loves Me album offers a life-affirming gravity to his declaration that “God, family and morals” are everything that he stands on.
