Detroit’s whiterosemoxie Shares New “Wayside” Music Video
Deeply musical and wise far beyond his years, Detroit artist whiterosemoxie is looking to shape the rap game in his own image. Immersing himself in a sonic realm of his own creation, and beckoning the world to join him, Moxie shares “Wayside,” a brand new video single. Produced by frequent collaborator Jay Cribbs, “Wayside” cultivates a hard-hitting, yet mysterious atmosphere, kicking off with mournful saxophones before settling into a groove with a low-note piano bassline over distorted 808s and twinkly synthesizers. Moxie accents the contours of the instrumental with forceful melody and mantra-like lyrics, expressing his desire to always keep listeners on their toes: “Give a f*ck bout a few things/And not one is what you think/I get money a few ways and not one is what you think.”
The song arrives alongside a kinetic and visceral music video, directed by Moxie’s fellow Detroit native Zozzy Malone. With the “Wayside” video, Moxie proves that he’s an artist who defies categorization–the camera stays in a tight close-up as Moxie moves from the gym to an apartment complex to a Metro Detroit billboard with effortless ease and attention-grabbing charisma. Moxie describes the video for “Wayside” as a major growth moment, as he kisses “reckless abandon” goodbye and starts an era of his career with focus and intentionality as guiding pillars. “Wayside” is the first glimpse of HUMAN BEHAVIOR, Moxie’s upcoming debut album, due to release before the end of the year via 300 Ent.
