Update – December 21st 11:49pm:
In case you missed the sarcasm in the clickbaity title, the video was indeed filmed at a hardcore show—a Xibalba and Nomads show to be exact. Due to some mildly deceptive editing, the clip tends to give off an air that the hardcore crowd antics are taking place at a hip hop show.
That is to say that the hip hop live performance aspects are meshed with the hardcore crowds to look like they are almost a singular performance. By all accounts, the bands themselves are fine with how it turned out. However, some have found the portrayal to be a bit misleading.
Original Story:
Hip-hop and pop culture have been co-opting metal/hardcore fashion for years now with the results often being rather absurd. Rapper A$AP Ferg‘s latest video for his track “Uzi Gang” continues the trend, featuring many hallmarks of metal/hardcore and punk shows and a few unexpected metal merch cameos.
