Watch Vince Staples' 'Prima Donna' Short Film (dir. Nabil)
Two weeks back, Vince Staples released his Prima Donna EP with the promise of a Nabil-directed short to accompany. Today the short film arrives from the visionary director, pitting Staples against the nightmare of fame. The whole sequence plays out in a Shining-like hotel where his fellow occupants include Jimi Hendrix and Kurt Cobain. Clips from the EP's track list play throughout, including "Smile," "War Ready" and "Big Time," prominently featuring James Blake's production, who Staples will support on tour this fall. Watch reverie turn to nightmare in Vince Staples' new Prima Donna short film down below and scroll down to peep his full slate of tour dates. Pick up your copy of the new album on iTunes today.
