New Soca Video: E.G. – Head Gone (@EgDaGovenaw)

EG HEAD GONEThe official video for E.G.‘s trending soca single, “Head Gone” is now available for viewing via YouTube. The visuals, which were shot by Roti Killa in Queens, New York, tells the story of a rum loving raver (E.G.) who gets drunk at a night club and is consequently robbed of all his jewelry by a woman he was trying to pursue.

As the song has been getting a lot of rotation, particularly from selectors in the NYC area, fans, friends and colleagues came out on the day of the shoot to show their support. The files were then sent to Jamaica for editing by Maria Jackson.

“Head Gone” is one of five songs featured on the Start Up Riddim by BKA Records, which was initially released at the end of 2018.
