Homeboy Sandman, "Fine"

Homeboy Sandman is back with a new video, "Fine," directed by Art Morera. The track is featured on his latest release, Rich, which finds the long-respected MC at the peak of his lyrical ability — smart, down-to-earth and deeply relatable. Rich is fully produced by New York beatmaker Mono En Stereo. Homeboy Sandman explained their creative process.

"Mono and I did Kool Herc: Fertile Crescent, and I was early in my growth. I was thinking, but I was still easily duped by decoy empowerment. We did Dusty, and I was spiritually very weak, but that was necessary for me to rebound and make breakthroughs. Now the breakthroughs have been made. I can finally tap into and wield this Mono magic like never before."
