Rapper, producer, DJ, multimedia artist and activist MH The Verb uses a compelling form of Afrofuturism to tell stories and make socio-political commentary. His forthcoming album Jupiter Sci-Fi will serve as the third full-length installment in the Afronaut saga, a conceptual multimedia series based on a Black sci-fi heroine from the future who travels back in time to inspire the world. Due out on November 2nd, the album sees MH reunited with his Philly-based Arthouse95 crew, fusing Hip-Hop, Jazz, Electronic and Funk. Today (10/14/2021), MH shared the official music video for the album’s Afro-Latin inspired single “Moment In Salento“. Shot at Skyranch Cannabis, an organic cannabis farm in the Santa Cruz Mountains, and edited by a 15-person crew of POC creatives from the Bay Area, the video will serve as the opening segment of a 20min visual collage for the closing evening of Colombia’s virtual MINGA International Arts Festival on October 16.
