Montréal producer Nicholas Craven has built one of the most impressive production resumes in the contemporary underground without ever losing his identity in the process – from Griselda collabs to Mach-Hommy, Roc Marciano, Boldy James, and Ransom, his catalog reads as a detailed map of where the hardest and most literary rap has been made in the last decade. "Die Slow" is the third video extracted from his collaborative album with Rosco P Coldchain, "Play With Something Safe" – produced by Craven, mixed and mastered by Roberto Viglione, and featuring Bruiser Wolf, whose deadpan Detroit delivery continues to be one of the more distinctive voices in the scene. Directed by Kogan, the video follows the same visual aesthetic that has accompanied prior singles from the project. The album itself is a sustained argument for Craven's ability to create coherent, immersive listening environments rather than just providing individual beat placements.
