Bay Area crew MacArthur Maze’s new video for “Panther Bruce Lee” is a dope throwback to classic hip-hop videos seen through the lens of a gifted filmmaker and some of modern hip-hop’s most talented voices.
The video was both shot and edited by NOBL, a member of Mac Maze who further proves the point that this is one of the best squads doing it right now. He utilizes a mixture of straight-ahead performance visuals with clever editing techniques to capture the raw energy and creative spirit of “Panther Bruce Lee.”
Speaking of that energy and spirit, we’re getting plenty of that thanks to DJ D Sharp’s looping, funky production and the left-right-uppercut verses from Champ Green, D. Bledsoe, and Ian Kelly. If you’re somehow sleeping on Mac Maze at this point, let this be your damn wakeup call.
Check out the visuals and head over to your preferred digital retailer or streaming platform to support Mac Maze’s debut LP, Blvck Saturday, out now via Table5 Music Group.
