Watch Philly rapper Citizen Xavier flow over a Teddy Pendergrass hook in “Left + Right”
From the opening beat, this new video from Philly Rapper Citizen Xavier hooks you in. The music in “Left + Right” strikes a smooth tone not unlike late 80s / early 90s faves Erik B & Rakim and The Pharcyde, and then rides it as the video gives a tour of the sights of Philadelphia – from backyard barbeques and graffiti-covered school buildings to the Art Museum steps. You can probably attribute some of that smoothness to the prominent sample of Teddy Pendergrass’ “Come Go With Me.” Compare Xavier’s song with its source material in the videos below, and download a free mp3 of “Left + Right” here.
