Saul Williams ‘The Noise Came From Here’ Video

Even though it's early in the year far author, poet and actor Saul Williams has our vote for one of the best albums of 2016. Depicting a fictional tale of a minor from Burundi who turns to hacking, 'Martyr Loser King' is a sonic roller coaster ride of experimental electronica, African rhythms and Hip-Hop, churned with a punk twist. For his latest video 'The Noise Came From Here', Williams travels to Ferguson, the city where Michael Brown was killed by the police. Joined by poet Marcellus Buckley and Rev. Osagyefo Sekou, the men stroll in circular motions of ritual before entering a local nail salon. Towards the end of the video Buckley recites the poem 'The People Vs. The Police'. 'The Noise Came From Here' is directed by Anisia Uzeyman.
