Watch Philly’s Chill Moody pay tribute to legendary producer, Alchemist

Philly rapper Chill Moody has spent the past several years on an upward trajectory, growing from one of Philly’s best kept secrets to a emcee ready to take on a much bigger stage. Earlier this week, Moody partnered up with Chevrolet and dropped a video for “Thank You Alchemist”, a tribute to the legendary hip-hop producer.

The video — which you can watch below — is simple and straightforward, choosing to focus solely on the rapper and his plethora of clever lyrics rather than any video flourishes. Chill Moody takes the Alchemist sample and does it justice by ripping through the nearly three-minute beat with impressive ease.

While this song may be a tribute to production, the redeeming quality of “Thank You Alchemist” is Moody’s ingenious wordplay and and his delivery which bounces freely, weaving his way through the beat seamlessly.
