P.U.R.E presents TopBananas, “Waiting For My Time To Come” official video for DigiNovel soundtrack. (Video & MP3)

I’m excited to finally share the P.U.R.E. drop on this new music video for the soundtrack to the DigiNovel “Please Use Rear Exit” written by Brandon Perkins(former Senior Editor of Urb Magazine). If your not already aware of the the vividly written character descriptions and at times sci-fi-ish chapters here’s a quick PLEASE USE REAR EXIT video synopsis:: When Mikhail walks into an uber-exclusive club in chapter 15, there’s a song playing that instantly puts some pep in his step. This is a video for that song. The debut video tours Los Angeles’ real-life bus system while maintaining P.U.R.E’s otherworldly spirit.

“Waiting For My Time To Come” was written and recorded by Norman Foote II (TopBananas) also URB alum, and mixed by Scott Friedman.

Listen to the chorus, you won’t be disappointed. This song is hot! And, so are the headphones with the gold accents! Dayyummm ;)

Listen + Download + Pass it on.
