Renowned Bay Area hip-hop trio Barbaydose has returned with their latest music video, “I See Lightning”, a visually striking and sonically captivating release from their forthcoming album, Alpha and Omega. The trio, consisting of lyricists Bsidez and WeInTheCloud, and producer Hiright, continue to push creative boundaries with their signature blend of gritty boom bap beats, sharp lyricism, and vivid storytelling.
“I See Lightning” is a masterclass in hip-hop artistry, where Barbaydose fuses classic boom bap influences with modern flair. The track’s hard-hitting production, courtesy of Hiright, lays a rich foundation for Bsidez and WeInTheCloud to deliver introspective and powerful verses. The song dives into themes of personal growth, self-determination, and the pursuit of abundance, reflecting the group’s evolution both musically and personally. The visual for “I See Lightning” is equally compelling, offering stark, high-contrast imagery that creates a dreamlike canvas for the duo to share their thoughts and dreams, while taking viewers through a world of vibrant symbolism and raw emotion.
Bsidez, known for his incisive wordplay and reflective storytelling, brings a unique depth to every verse. His delivery is both poetic and precise, allowing listeners to connect deeply with the themes of the song. WeInTheCloud, on the other hand, provides a contrast with his laid-back yet passionate flow, blending introspective bars with forward-thinking visions. Together, their chemistry is undeniable, creating a dynamic that is both powerful and thought-provoking. Their verses touch on personal journeys, aspirations, and the complex process of navigating life’s challenges.
The production from Hiright on “I See Lightning” is nothing short of stellar. Known for his ability to blend heavy, classic boom bap drums with innovative sounds, Hiright’s beats serve as the backbone of Barbaydose’s distinct style. His production elevates the track with a rich soundscape that enhances the storytelling, layering atmospheric tones and hard-hitting rhythms to complement the lyrical content. As one of the most consistent and talented producers in the Bay Area scene, Hiright’s work on “I See Lightning” continues to prove why Barbaydose remains a force to be reckoned with in the underground hip-hop world.
