South Side’s Taylor Bennett Steal Back “Rock & Roll”

Produced by CEO Beatz, Taylor Bennett’s new single, ‘Rock n Roll,’ is Naked’s latest collaboration, directed by Andre Muir, shot by Flynn Drew, and produced by Manny Caston and Zach Moore. In the video, the company’s signature style is again highlighted with unique storytelling and captivating visuals.

The video serves as the first official visual for his critically acclaimed EP. The non-linear series of events allows the audience to put together their own version of the story until the end when all is revealed. Taylor and director Andre Muir developed the concept for the video when thinking about what the worst day ever would be. Taylor became enamored with the idea of robbing a record store and thought the Elvis masks an ode to cultural appropriation on how rock a genre not credited to people of color and now having the opportunity to steal it back.

Taylor Bennett continues to push the limits of social constructs, hoping what seems to be an “uncomfortable state”, will welcome conversation and light to shine into places where it hasn’t been seen in a long time. It’s bold statements like this that the Mid-West sensation, is often likened to other elite Chicago artists and socially conscious rappers—but has proved to be the lone wolf, separating from the pack, being an advocate for those who can’t speak for themselves. Extraordinarily on the music side, he’s opened up for Hip-Hop heavy weights; Nas, Vic Mensa, YG, Curren$y, Tory Lanez & more. With iconic comparisons to artists such as Common, Andre 3000 and Mos Def, the MC has racked up over 60 million + streams across streaming platforms. Called the “Next Generation Rapper” by Iconic INTERVIEW MAGAZINE, Bennett has spent the past year selling out 2 back to back tours from his 2017 “The Taylor Bennett Show” to his 2018 “Restoration of An American Idol” tour. He’s just getting started and continues to prove himself to be one of 2018’s stars to watch.
