Walk the Streets of Auckland With Blaze the Emperor and a Bottle of Hennessy

Watch Blaze's new video and move to his fine piece of Southern Hemisphere trap.

Blaze the Emperor is a member of AmmoNation, a New Zealand hip-hop collective that includes Raiza Biza and NASH who over the last few years have been appearing in the right feeds and playlists and making noise in the local trap scene.

Shot in downtown Auckland, the video for Blaze's latest video "Pacific Coast" has him wandering the streets feeling slightly seedy after a big night.

"I had a show the night before so I showed up to the shoot with half a bottle of Hennessy to try and cure the hangover," remembers Blaze. "But amongst the madness, we came out with some dope footage."

Taken from off their debut AmmoNation EP VOL:1, the track, produced by Stuss and featuring cuts by Ill Baz, pops with lines such as "I had a dream like Martin, then I had nightmares like Malcolm, all of these late nights in my apartment, trying to turn the income into an outcome."

Big song. Big video.
