HoodTrophy Bino x Lefty Gunplay – “123” (Video)
In an industry that exploits street life, “123” stands out for its honesty. It proves that being from the streets doesn’t mean being blind to the world. Bino adds, “ ‘123‘, the title of the song, is a play on words. People think we’re slow. We’re showing we can count to three. We’re smarter than you think – we’re in your face. We play dumb but we’re smart.” Behind the verses, “123” has a melodic backdrop that blends delicate guitar strums with hard-hitting percussion, for a juxtaposition that mirrors the song’s emotional duality.
On the collaboration with Lefty Gunplay, Bino adds, “Lefty is one of those ese’s in the city that CBFW. I love him like a brother. Me and him share a lot of the same similarities. He’s good hearted; a real one. He doesn’t fake the love or the hate. If he don’t f with you, then he don’t f with you. I took him to his first courtside NBA game. We hang out together. We try to break that division between the Hispanics and Blacks.”
