Brodie Bones, the moniker of Cephas Munga, aka Blac Hollywood, aka Ghozt Pit & more returns with a look at the vide ofor “Sum of All Fears” that delivers his most hazy & entrancing sounds, tones & textures to date. Having returned to his Vancouver stomping grounds, Brodie Bones (aka BB) shines a light on his most hypnotic production to date that illuminate some bright new directions. The various projects that Cephas has been a part of continue to inflate in terms of atmospheric texture where Brodie Bones finds Munga ascending toward great rewarding & exciting new heights.

Brodie Bones’ “Sum Of All Fears” is brought to you by Super Hubbo & Navjxt where Cephas is seen sporting a fly Iron Maiden tee while schlepping about with a shovel and traversing through a variety of locales. Brodie Bones is Cephas taking his sound to deeper directions and more enriched dimensions where the production is delivered through familiar terrains that fly up higher than ever before where the artist has discovered a more mature & realized realm of how his sound conveys emotive & resonating facets of meaningful pop traits. More so than ever before, Brodie Bones is Cephas Munga building off the institutions built by Cities Aviv, clipping., Death Grips, World’s Fair, and counting in new facets & forms discovered by Cephas himself. Cephas Munga introduced his new labor of love with the following introduction:

After having moved back from living in New York with my good friend Lifeguard, aka Jonathan Contreras-Whitney. I had been super inspired by the pace of the city and vibe. I felt accepted in a place where my inner weirdo could shine without objection. it was time for a revamp. I knew I could get my branding and marketing game up. It’s a business right so why not give them what they want. They want you to look sexier and cooler than they do. Music videos are a cool way to make yourself seem larger than life. The video came about because I wanted to finally give my sound some visual appeal. Kids want the YouTube, so you gotta give it to them.

I’ve met so many new artists this year. Vancouver is still a snooze fest but there’s hidden talent here. I linked up with the young shooter Navjxt, he’s talented behind the camera. Superhubbo is an artist whose direction I trust. We’re working on music together too as well. Getting all these kids to work together will be so beneficial to the culture that is lacking here in Vancouver. Someone needs to shine light on it. Not me though. I’m just making my art, then plan to leave again.
