Very much worth the wait, Topaz Jones linked with director Simon Davis to produce some refreshing visuals for his track “Study Hall” off of Hello My Name Is. Giving us a glimpse of the talent at NYU, their videos have never disappointed. If you haven’t already, make sure you head over to TastemakersNJ.bandcamp.com to download his latest mixtape Hello My Name Is.

+ Check out Topaz Jones alongside Moruf and a variety of others this Thursday at Chill in Montclair, NJ.

Enjoy!
