It’s been a good week for Chicagoan singer Lili K. In a week where her features on Chance the Rapper’s “Acid Rap” received some much-deserved praise from publications such as the LA Times, the very talented singer released the video for her latest single off of her EP, “Metal Petals.” Entitled “Highlight the Moon,” the video, which was co-directed by Addison Wright and Lili K herself, showcases the ups and downs of the fictional relationship between Lili and Chicago tattoo artist extraordinaire Jason Hoodrich. The use of a Super 8-esque filter adds a soft, nostalgic saturation to the video that perfectly matches the song’s reflective theme. It’s always the attention to details that can help elevate the level of quality; good choice, guys.
