Future puts visuals to the saddest trap song ever

?
?It’s here. “The sweetest, saddest trap song I’ve ever heard,” as I christened Future’s “Blood On the Money” a month ago in an opinion column on the devolution of Atlanta, has received some sick visuals in a vid that dropped earlier this week.
?
?If you love to hate on trap rap, you’re gonna love this. With direction credited to the Rite Brothers, the video’s somber tone matches the drone of Future’s melodic plod through the matter-of-fact mortality of a dope boy’s existence. It opens on a black-on-black funeral scene in a rainy graveyard. The camera freeze frames on a gray tombstone, a red rose, and raindrops streaming down a black casket before offering a birds-eye view staring down at the soaked umbrellas below. 
?
?Future plays the role of a crime boss equally tormented by the life he leads and the lives he takes. The ending, however, puts a surprising twist on things. The directors go for slick imagery over gritty realism. But between the evocative cinematography and the poetic storyline, this might be the first trap video in a long time that strikes an authentic emotional chord. Which is exactly what made the Zaytoven-produced song so compelling in the first place.

?For real, for real. If you can’t feel this pain, you have no soul. ?embed-1
