Erick the Architect, celebrated rapper, producer, and one-third of the legendary Flatbush Zombies, unveils the music video for his latest single “Beverly Drive,” offering a visual representation of the song’s reflective narrative. The track, which dropped last week, explores Erick’s journey growing up in East Flatbush, Brooklyn, and his global perspective from California to Jamaica.
“Beverly Drive” is part of Erick’s recently announced deluxe edition of I’ve Never Been Here Before, set for release on November 15, which will feature additional tracks and exclusive content.
“Beverly Drive” reflects Erick’s deep connection to the places that have shaped him. He says: “Beverly Road is the specific neighborhood I was raised in, Beverly Drive is also located in California (where I live now), and I started writing this song in Beverly Drive, Jamaica. I was always faced with balancing survival with my instinctual knowledge, always observing my surroundings and making the right decisions to escape from danger. Through this track, I hope to take listeners back to my hood and shine a light on the city I love so much.”
Produced by Erick, “Beverly Drive” brings listeners into a soundscape that gives thought to the challenges, observations, and experiences that have defined his life.
