Hip hop has lost a lot of incredible talent this year. In January, news broke that Fredo Santana passed away after he suffered from a seizure. It was heartbreaking for his fans and family. There hasn't been a whole lot of posthumous music he's released since his passing but he did have several music videos he shot prior to his passing. Today marks what would've been his 28th birthday and to commemorate, Chief Keef has released the video for "Demons."
The final project that Fredo Santana released before he died was Fredo Kruger 2 which hailed features from Kodak Black, Chief Keef and more. Today, Chief Keef has shared the video for Fredo Santana's "Demons" from the project. The video was shot by @colourfulmula who's worked with Tadoe and Ballout in the past. Fredo Santana gets demonic special effects added throughout the video to live up the song's title.
R.I.P. Fredo Santana. We miss you.
