Robert Glasper x Jill Scott - "Calls" [Official Video]

Robert Glasper and Jill Scott reunite to prep fans for the release of The Experiment's highly-anticipated Black Radio 2 LP with the official video for "Calls" directed by Ace Norton. The video features a mash of symbolic images and warm tones that combine to illustrate the message conveyed at the beginning of the clip; the video opens with the anonymous quote, "Moving forward is moving on." The words are juxtaposed by an opening shot of Jill Scott stuck at a red light that will not turn green. The suspense is driven by the uncertainty of of darkness, contrasting shadows and an approaching wolf that circles and follows the pair throughout the footage from the moment that Scott steps outside of the vehicle and thus herself in order to find the courage to move on. She finds solace and some semblance of safety in the presence of song as Glasper delivers an enveloping melody and a more direct approach to confronting and ultimately escaping the lingering fears in order to embrace what lies ahead. Check the footage below to watch the official video for "Calls" from Robert Glasper and Jill Scott. Pre-order the Robert Glasper Experiment's Black Radio 2 LP via iTunes.
