Video: El-P x Nick Diamonds - "Stay Down" (+ Director Commentary)

Lenny Kravitz, Grace Jones, Lauryn Hill, Lion Babe, Thundercat, SZA & More Rock The Afropunk Festival 2015 in Brooklyn, NY.

Before El-P and Nick Diamonds became Stepson, the Islands frontman was featured on Producto's "Stay Down" off of Cancer 4 Cure. When it came down to making the video, Diamonds wasn't able to make it so El-P decided to get Jaleel Bunton (from TV On The Radio) to stand in. Oh and of course, your favorite rascally-ass puppet, Mr. Killums, had to make an appearance. Now we get a DVD extras style commentary from El-P and director Timothy Saccenti for the "Stay Down" video. Listen to the two go back and forth about pageant chicks, the psychosexual vibe of the night, and of course the important role played by Mr. Killums' presence in the video. Watch and listen below.
