Over the past few months Brooklyn rapper and singer SAINt JHN has been releasing what he calls 'one take' videos for tracks taken from his 2019 LP 'Ghetto Lenny's Love Songs'. Basically, the team literally film each vid in one take and release them. With that being said, the visuals aren't shabby at all. In fact, they're quite good. For his latest one take, SAINt JHN has dropped a video for the Imanbek remix of his song 'Roses'. You can find the artist driving around in a truck full of girls dancing to the track, even though technically they're actually in front of a green screen. Never the less, the tune is a banger and the graphics for the flashing lyrics are really amazing. Have a look.
