Critically acclaimed Los Angeles-based rapper DUCKWRTH drops the video for the single BOY, taken off his project, AN XTRA UUGLY MIXTAPE

Rapping upside down, DUCKWRTH weaves a compelling tale over a sonic backdrop brought to life by bright visuals intercut with an unflinchingly intense chase scene. Conceived as a story by DUCKWRTH and Mettenarrative, the cinematic clip lives up to his reputation as the game’s most intriguing new outlier. ‘Boy’ stands out as the latest single to be released from his applauded 2018 project ‘an XTRA UUGLY Mixtape.’

Paper Magazine recently praised him writing, “The rapper, for lack of a better descriptor, expertly blends Hip Hop, funk, and rock to create a truly eccentric and undisputedly unique sound. Think Outkast meets N.E.R.D. meets something entirely out of this world”.

Since the release of his sophomore project, an XTRA UUGLY Mixtape, in November,

“DUCKWRTH hit the ground running.” – XXL.

He toured North America alongside Rich Brian, performing more than 30 shows in less than two months.
