Synopsis

Adrian Lau spends "Look Real High" in a loose rooftop setting surrounded by friends, graffiti and the visual language of Brooklyn street life. The video favors an informal, hangout-style presentation over a narrative storyline, matching the track's hazy, unhurried mood. Lau performs directly to the camera while the rooftop environment and crew add a casual, lived-in atmosphere to the song's laid-back hip-hop feel.
