What do Childish Gambino and Problem have in common? Both have been named in DubCNN’s “Artists To Watch” series in the past.
Most recently Gambino featured in our “Artists To Watch in 2012” – today the Problem assisted video for “Sweatpants” was released.
The video, directed by Hiro Murai and Larkin Seiple, is the latest single off “Because The Internet” – but judging by his Twitter feed the release was a label decision and not his.
Watch the video below and then view the tweets after.
