Share new 90s inspired video for 'What Eva' ft. Mr. J. Medeiros out via Nowadays Records

Rising French electronic collective and label owners, La Fine Equipe, are pleased to announce details of a brand new visual for 'What Eva' ft. Mr. J. Medeiros released through Nowadays Records this December.

The band detail the video: "We wanted it to look like a 90s VHS that was put on the VCR. Part of the charm was its fuzzy, imperfect look so apparent during that era. 'What Eva' embodies a strong DIY ethos and we the band, did most of the filming ourselves using a small handheld camcorder. Everything was filmed on location in the supermarket. There are no 3D models. The song and visual is also a homage to the strong visual elements often found in 90s music videos like Mc Solaar's 'New Western' and French hiphop outfit IAM's 'Je danse le Mia'. There is a surreal sequence in the video where we are surrounded by a kaleidoscopic display of supermarket products. To summarize, we had a complete blast filming this".

La Fine Equipe are strongly influenced by hip-hop royalty like J Dilla, Mos Def and Madlib. The four French beatmakers, Oogo, Chomsky, Mr, Gib and Blanka from (Marseille and Paris collectively continue their journey with a new album due in March 2019. The group's debut album, 'La Boulangerie', attained cult status and propelled the band into the mainstream consciousness. This led to the release of three more critally acclaimed albums 'Fantastic Planet' (2010), 'La Boulangerie 2' (2011) and 'La Boulangerie 3' (2014) and the creation of celebrated electronic label Nowadays Records that recently celebrated their 5 year anniversary with a special 23 track compilation 'Nowadays V' featuring label signings like Fakear, Clement Bazin, Robert Robert and more.

La Fine Equipe have also taken their hi-octane live shows across Europe including festivals like Les Vieilles Charrues, Dour, Les Francofolies, the Printemps de Bourges and the Couleur Café festival and a mini tour of Asia. The band also won the Deezer Adami Award and glowing reviews in tastemaker press like Arte, MixMag and Boiler Room, who invited them to be part of their legendary Boiler Room Sessions in Paris and London.

lyrics

Now how the fuck you never heard of me
Worry me nah my current is raw plus fuck you currently are
My currency strong dumb luck occurred to me nah
Its just the birds and the bees y'all a burden to me
Burning to please got burns on your knees awe
No love bet you learning to tease awe
No pub got ya earning no fees awe
I'd give a hug to y'all but all of y'all is furries with flees
Feel the fury 100 plus that's my current degree
Free a flurry out the snub and watch it scurry your team
See'em hurry out the club now if you heard what I mean
I be the jury and the judge I make a murder look clean with
Nuff shots for the burner to cease
You gurgling these words that leave you bleeding in a permanent freeze
I turn up like a curb to the teeth
Smile mother fucker gonna hurt to say cheese

I take a pull from the blunt like pah What Eva
I take a pull from the blunt like pah pah
I take a pull from the blunt like pah What Eva
I take a pull from the blunt like pah pah

I am afraid of no rapper man
I ain't ashamed of my road or the chapters man
I have been trained in all flows and I've mastered them
All for the sake of a name you can't trash talk man
'98 is where my past start made it out the asphalt
Dated on my passport I aint ever asked for a name to vouch my last work
Stated in my craft work if you aint got your own name shame but that’s your ass fault
I aint ever been a humble man so keep the prayer hands
I’m forever sinned and born again now that’s a fair stance
I have got forgive us on my skin now thats a shared glance
But I can’t watch my back or wash my back aint that a pair of pants
Damn one leg at a time shit is cumbersome
And I won’t be the sullen one who’s waiting on the summer sun
Nah I’m a be the sum of one who came to take what’s come to him
And say to those who’ve come to shun
Mother fucker better run

I take a pull from the blunt like pah What Eva
I take a pull from the blunt like pah pah
I take a pull from the blunt like pah What Eva
I take a pull from the blunt like pah pah
