“Sometimes you have to be grateful for the things you already have.” With Kam Moye’s new video for “Let’s Be Honest,” the North Carolina emcee continues to display his down to earth sensibilities, and now finds himself fleshing out those sentiments with a strong set of visuals. The scenes are filled with Kam rhyming on a park bench and window-shopping with his girl, a refreshing contrast to the decadent hip-hop videos that have grown to be so common. The video is directed by Matt Koza of HOJ Media, who is known for his recent work with Foreign Exchange, Big Pooh, Cymarshall Law, and more. Kam and MYX Music Label have enlisted Koza for a 3-video package deal, which will also include videos for “Splitting Image” and one other video off of the new album. Kam states, “I’ve worked with a few video directors in the past and I’ve had great experiences, but very few had the same quality as Koza’s videos. Instead of experimenting with different directors, I wanted to use one director to help tell my story for the album.” Kam Moye’s new album, Splitting Image, is currently available via MYX Music Label.
