Welcome to TWIB’s Weekly Top 10 Videos. This is a segment where we will be looking at some exceptional visuals from various acts from around the globe. The music video format has been around for decades and through the 90s and 2000s, it has taken flight from multi-million budget music videos, to mid to low-budget videos with exceptional features. In this section, we will not discriminate but rather highlight some of the creative visuals that pop up on our radar.
Again, we promise to bring you the best from high to low budget, to animated to DIY and first and foremost, the most creative visuals we can source.

Muja x Dub Sonata – “Put It Inna Book” ft. Nazeem (of Blood $moke Body)

Muja (formerly known as Muja Messiah) is putting Minneapolis on the hip-hop map as he continues his mission to break the mould. His latest effort is a forthcoming collaborative project with producer Dub Sonata titled Break The Stereo. The 11 track body of work is led by the visuals for the third song “Put It Inna Book” featuring Nazeem (of Blood $moke Body) who happens to be his son. The hard-hitting track sees both father and son trading bars over the mystical soundscape provided by Dub and the result is a cross generational effort that bridges the gap. The visual shot by Spencer Joles plays on the title as we see the duo and the entire squad taking over a vintage book store and soaking in the knowledge that fake cats refuse to absorb.
