Picking up the Slack for MTV: How To Dress Well


Last week How To Dress Well released the music video for "& It Was U" via facebook alongside the status update "share w your people worldwide the boy want a billion views." The thing that stands out about the song long after you've finished hearing it is the gospel-choir joy it exudes- and the video complements this element appropriately. When asked, Krell (the man behind the moniker) reveals "The video, to my mind, is about the insatiable need to believe. It captures a group of people in a very personal and very eccentric spiritual ritual, and showcases all the different ways these different people experience something magical." And as you'll see, the music video does indeed translate a sense of timeless festivity by depicting celebration in it's most pure form; prayer, dance, camaraderie and let's not forget, gold caped man riding a gold-plated segway.
