The moment the first beat of Barclay Crenshaw‘s “Detroit Warehouse” video drops, you’re instantly aware that you’re about to be hit with a barrage of bangers. Crenshaw has always had a knack for fusing the grimy essence of rap with the pulse of wubz, and this time, he’s taken it to another dimension. As the bass lines hit, you can’t help but get low – no matter where you are, or what you’re doing. You can watch the full video on Barclay Crenshaw’s YouTube channel here.
An irresistible pull to groove with every note, it’s like you can feel the pash on your head – sunglasses on, bass fingers wiggling – all for the beats that just have to move to. We knew about the Trap House subgenre of EDM, but now everyone needs to know about Trap Wubz, and Barclay knows just how to give us the perfect introduction. It’s clear Crenshaw isn’t just pushing boundaries—he’s redrawing them.
In an email announcement for the set dropping on Youtube, Barclay let’s fans know that “The set is a great way to see and hear if you are into the new project or not. This is the vibe.” Crenshaw’s “Detroit Warehouse” video is a nod at the journey he’s undertaken in his “80 Days to Make an Album” Instagram challenge. The video, a dynamic homage to Detroit’s electronic music legacy, offers viewers a glimpse into the raw, industrial vibe of the city’s legendary warehouse scene.
Crenshaw’s melodies, carried by mallets and piano keys, showcases Detroit’s laid-back hip-hop grooves, while the rap slices through with biting punchlines and a kinetic flow that occasionally skews from the beat, crafting an authentically rough and compelling sound. His signature deep bass underpins the mix, enhancing without overshadowing, taking the vocals to new heights.
His daily Instagram check-ins have provided fans a real-time look at the emotional and creative highs and lows of album production, adding layers of personal insight to the music and visuals he crafts. This behind-the-scenes perspective not only endears Crenshaw to his audience but also deepens the connection to his work, making the “Detroit Warehouse” video an extension of his journey, a powerful expression of his artistry in motion.
