Boston rapper DMoney Martinez is fresh off of the release of his latest project, Larry Drip. The rapper's been pushing the project heavily since its release. Early March, he linked up with producer Joe Milly for the "Friends" music video and today, he returns with a new visual off his latest project.
Martinez has always stuck out thanks to the variety of styles in his music. "Different" produced by Santalus is a prime example of that. In the video, Martinez serves up a luxurious lifestyle, hangs with pretty women, and flexes his car and money, living up to the song. The video was directed by DMoney Martinez and Martin Cruz and edited by LV Filmz.
