Kassa Overall has released the video for his single "Cussing At The Strip" via Brooklyn Vegan today. The video stars Kassa Overall with Rebecca Quinn, and made by Jake Remington. The track was produced by Overall and features his mother on acoustic guitar. Watch and share video for "Cussing At The Strip" here.
Kassa Overall tells Brooklyn Vegan about the inspiration behind "Cussing At The Strip": "The song is about how it isn't our job to constantly judge each other and decide who is doing right or wrong. It is our job to judge our own actions. Also, the divine experience is a personal journey. Don't fall into the trap of other people's projections about your reality. This lesson is also reflected in the video as it deals with a character losing his grip between reality and virtual reality."
