With Rose Azura Njano in heavy rotation, CunninLynguists are back with a new video off their first album in six years.

Running with the Trizz-assisted “Gone,” Deacon, Kno and Natti tackle gentrification head on with a crisp visual full of striking imagery.

“We wanted to illustrate the song’s gentrification themes visually while keeping the raw energy of the beat and hook,” Kno told hhdx. “We’d never really done a Wu-Tang-style posse cut video with everyone rapping at the camera all in the same frame and real rowdy, so that’s what we aimed for. Trizz has a ton of natural on-screen charisma too so it was easy. Him and Natti both, the camera loves those guys.”
