Kaytranada – “You’re The One” Video
Kaytranada recently won the 2016 Polaris Music Prize for his debut album 99.9%, and he celebrated by releasing a companion mixtape called 0.001%. Now, he’s shared a video for 99.9%‘s Syd-featuring track “You’re The One” that pulls from Kaytranada’s favorite childhood programming. Director Shomi Patwary explains in a press release: “Stylistically it was influenced by the look of black sitcoms from the early 90s — from Martin to Living Single and UPN sitcoms. The African prince idea derived from the plot of Coming To America.” It packs a decent amount of plot in four minutes, and looks beautiful while doing it. Watch below.
