Illinois - Christian hip hop artist Nathan Graves continues to develop his craft. 2021 has seen the Illinois resident release multiple singles and establish himself as an emcee that blends faith with the reality of the streets. His mission is simple. To let the people who are currently living where he’s been know there is a better way, Jesus.

Graves’ new single King is produced by SypherStorm and features traditional hip hop elements, such as record scratches, to set the foundation. He describes King as “a song that pays homage to old school hip hop while hitting the listener with that street gospel.” 

In addition to the single hitting digital streaming platforms on August 10, 2021, Graves linked up with Just Clear Visuals to film an accompanying music video as well. The visual is available now via Just Clear Visuals’ YouTube channel.

The music video for King was recorded in a studio setting. It uses a variety of color treatments, cut scenes, and special effects to create a unique viewing experience that compliments the record while bringing Graves’ energy to the visual space.
