Neak releases a music video for his “What’s Really Here” single

Neak is an up-and-coming hip-hop artist based in Chicago, Illinois. Not too long ago, he released a music video for his “What’s Really Here” single.

Neak – “What’s Really Here” music video

The Irv Vaz-directed music video takes viewers on a scenic trip that captures the inner city of Chicago. Also, the video highlights the ills that come along with living in underserved Black communities.

‘What’s Really Here’ contains an urban narrative and true-to-life raps that will resonate well with fans of Nas, Kendrick Lamar, Common, and Lupe Fiasco. The conscious tune possesses jazzy/soul instrumentation flavored with a nostalgic ‘90s hip-hop aroma. Furthermore, “What’s Really Here” serves as a poetic appetizer to what listeners can expect to hear from Neak in the near future.

Neak draws vivid verbal portraits which find inspiration in the spirit of U.S. culture and his own deep-seating personal experiences. The artist cites Nas, Mos Def, Common, Lupe Fiasco, MF Doom, Elzhi, and Jay-Z as his main lyrical influences. Also, authenticity, originality, and excellence all evoke a heartfelt emotion for listeners of his music.
