The music video for the latest single “LV MURAKAMI”, released on Thursday, February 6th by contemporary artist Murakami Takashi and rapper JP THE WAVY, a unique unit by domestic and international rapper J.D. THE WAVY, has been released.
This is a song to celebrate the Louis Vuitton x Murakami collaboration for the first time since 2003. The music video features a storyline in which JP THE WAVY, who was riding a mysterious taxi in Tokyo at night, gets lost in the world of the Louis Vuitton x Murakami collaboration, and the collaboration motif is expressed in full CG animation.
The film is directed by BRTHR, a decreter duo of Alex Lee & Kyle Wighman, who has worked on Travis Scott’s “Butterfly Effect” and Joji’s “Yukon (Interlude),”, and is attracting attention worldwide.
[BRTHR Comments]
This is a project that was just like I had envisioned in a virtual world – that has become a reality… It was a truly dream project. Working with our hero, Murakami Takashi, and the incredible artist JP THE WAVY, was the most fun and exciting experience I’ve ever had. 95% of the production was made up of green screens, and it was a very challenging production, but I hope you enjoy this Music Video!
