Changstarr drops ‘Bali High (Feat. Owen Ovadoz)’ single and music video
Hippie rapper Changstarr has released the digital single and music video ‘Bali High‘ today together with his close friend, MKIT RAIN’s Owen Ovadoz.
In November, Changstarr dropped his mixtape ‘Highdigger‘, thoroughly imprinting the hippie lifestyle into listeners’ minds.
For his new, colorful music video, Changstarr and his friend Owen flew to Bali. Flaunting bliss, freedom, and joy in the beautiful Bali nature, Changstarr tells the future hippies to live a free-spirited life. At the same time he shows his love for Bali which has seen a decline in tourists due to the recent eruptions of volcano Mount Agung.
Another close friend of Changstarr’s, director Hypnos, was in charge of the video.
“Everyone who has opened the Doors of Perception will fully understand the lyrics and the video. This song is their anthem.”
“I’mma lead the way, this is how it’s done, hippies”
“You only got one life to live, so why not?”
