Hip-Hop, Videos | QuESt – Angels & Demons
Posted by Grubeats on October 4, 2012
Donald Glover may have made this beat famous with “Freaks & Geeks”, but QuESt just did one hell of a job playing the role. Consider this a floating freebie until QuESt’s next project, which will likely thrill you in early spring , ’13.
“I wrote this song as a prelude to what I’m creating next. We all have angels and demons in our lives, sometimes it’s just harder to figure out who’s who.” – QuESt

With yet another visual treatment to accompany “One Way” off his Fear Not Failure mixtape, QuESt is gaining confidence with each release and it’s clear that is translating to more emotion and personality behind the camera. The depth in QuESt’s lyrics is astounding. This is by far the best video I’ve seen to date from the slept on Miami star. With the stars in his reach, I wouldn’t be surprised to see QuESt grasping the world in his hands without conforming to one way.
“It is our light, not the darkness, that frightens us”

The young Miami rhymes-man delivers an introspective visual treatment for “Chase To Nowhere”, which was featured on his most recent mixtape, Fear Not Failure. Recognizing at times his trip may be disgruntling and appear as a chase to nowhere, these are the cards he was dealt and no matter what adversity he faces, music is his destiny. QuESt has once again proves his consistency with another strong representation of his powerful lyrical ability after delivering another promising video for “I Go, You Go” less than one month ago.

We’ve posted QuESt a couple times in the past, the first being when he dropped his most recent mixtape, Fear Not Failure. Here we have a new video from the Miami native, which can be found on that mixtape, which also includes features from Logic and Mickey Factz. As a bonus, I’ve added in a record that didn’t make the cut for Fear Not Failure, but definitely deserves a listen. In other news, QuESt just finished his stint on tour, opening up for Logic and Tayyib on the VMG tour for the first few shows, so I think it’s fair to expect more collabs from the two in the future.

Apart from the recent baby boom of Gen-Snapbacks, there are artists who continue to draw from the roots of hip hop. Lyrics are the focal point. QuEST, a native to Miami has not fallen into the trap of imitating local mainstream guru’s like Rick Ross, nor the Mac Miller army of high school “rappers”, but rather snapped back to the early 90’s where he has taken a page from his idols books. With a feature from arguably one of the realist lyricists coming up, Logic, this is one of the standout tracks off Quest’s recent mixtape, Fear Not Failure. I haven’t had a chance to listen to the project in full yet, but judging by this track and the few we’ve heard in the past, QuEST is holstering some real potential.
