Houston and Brooklyn connect in Maxo Kream’s nostalgic new video for “1998,” a #Maxo 187 stand-out featuring Joey Bada$$ and shot in the Brooklyn neighborhood of Bedford-Stuyvesant. Filmed in the grainy style of ’90s home movies, the video finds the Texas motormouth and the Pro Era general echoingSpike Lee’s Do The Right Thing, chilling on the porch with a boombox and a blunt. Last month, Maxosynthesized the sounds of Southwest Houston with signature South London vibes on the Grime-tinged single “Big Worm,” earning praises from Grime vet Skepta and racking up nearly 300K plays on Soundcloud.
