Originally released as a single in 2022 and later added to Volume 2 of his 828 EP series, Kamos (@KamosMusic) drops off the official visual for “Free Speech.” The small-screen interruption of the RE:VCT produced track was directed by MUNDO and serves as the debut promotional video from the Bronx-bred bar smith’s upcoming 828 full length. This timely HD-clip addresses how politically charged conversations are easily misinterpreted and result in harsh judgments or even cancellation by society. Kamos raps: “Is my speech really free? I got questions to ask, but sort of scared to speak. Don’t wanna be canceled by a culture for a tweet. Who is to blame, do you point it at me?.”
In a press statement, the east coast emcee reveals:
“Free speech was created after I was told another song I was gearing up to release may be too harsh or triggering for people to digest. This led to me having writer’s block for the whole day, because what is there to write about when your thoughts are being judged. This record is the result of me trying to resolve that internal creative conflict.”
