For as bleak as El-P’s music can be, there’s a strangely uplifting ending to this video for Time Won’t Tell, a track off the recently released Weareallgoingtoburninhellmegamixxx3.

The official info tells us that the video “is inspired by a childhood memory of director Shan Nicholson, who grew up in the ‘Old New York’ during a time when necessity often bred creativity. This video depicts a young boy innocently finding a way to embrace his imagination amid an urban wasteland.”
