THEOPHILUS

Theophilus London has made everyone excited about being creative. He recently released the Kanye-produced, Lagerfeld-inspired album Vibes, and now a music video for the single 'Tribe' featuring Jesse Boykins III. At first listen to the album, I didn't quite 'get' it - I certainly didn't not enjoy it, I just didn't understand what he was going for. However, after watching this clip, Mr London makes a lot of sense now. He is a genius music-fashion-dance amalgamation, and his music needs to be listened to in that context.

“I want my music and the fashion to be inspired by one another... Why do they have to be separate? I make my music to live in other places. I make it for film directors, for artists. When I’m creating, the end result’s always supposed to inspire other creators.”
