Trippy New Video “Prisoner” Captures Miami Artist Cedric Brazle Drowning in His Own Thoughts
“Prisoner” invites viewers to feel what it’s like to be inescapably trapped in your own mental space
Miami, FL — R&B Crooner Cedric Brazle’s latest music video complimenting his new single “Prisoner” is in a word… otherworldly.
Directed by Gabe Sheffield, we find Cedric in the center of his mind, drowning in a series of imprisoned cycles. Driven by the reality that we all have something we fear and the hesitation it can cause in moving forward, the visual draws us into Cedric’s world as he vulnerably shares the personal conflict within himself. With the calm yet chaotic, dark and grungy-toned feel, the hazy clip perfectly compliments the soothing and eerie chords that play along the 808 bass riding the production. “Don’t wanna be a prisoner to my own fear” becomes a theme as Cedric makes his statement in the hook to overcome his fears.
