“I shoulda stay gone.”Globetrotting emcee Kingdom Kome has dropped visuals for new track “Stay Gone” this morning. Shot by Kevin Ramos and edited by D. Sakolsky (for Gusto Gold Productions) footage was mostly filmed on location in San Juan, Puerto Rico. However, while the background is a tropic beach, the soulful message throughout is one of disgust. Kingdom Kome reveals “it’s mostly inspired by my disgust of the music industry and how soulless and godless it truly is. I’m basically saying that if it wasn’t for my love for our culture and my art that I would have left this game a long time ago.”
