PC - Pretenders (Official Music Video)

This talented emcee from the "Rocky Mountains" of Colorado, PC's new video Pretenders is a thriller of a music video. PC lyrical talents are those of an educated mindset that has deeper meaning but listeners can relate to his music. The track jams with a hard hook, and hard rock feel the Pretenders single speaks volumes on who to trust.

The Pretenders video is a well thought out concept that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats. The twist at the end of the video sums up the track nicely.
