PRESSA DROPS “OTM” FOR HIS FANS, TODAY

Pressa - OTM

OFFICIAL VIDEO PREMIERES TONIGHT AT 10PM EST, ON WORLDSTARHIPHOP

 

Today, Toronto-born rapper Pressa drops the song and video for “OTM,” for his fans. Listen to the track HERE. The official video premieres tonight, exclusively on WorldStarHipHop, at 10pm EST.

“OTM” highlights the rapper’s recognizable flow and cadence, with his signature high-pitched and braggadocious bars. The video, shot in L.A. by director Be EL Be (Rich Gang), showcases Pressa’s urban street style and fun, youthful energy. Be EL Be speaks to the message of resiliency in the song by saying, “getting it ‘out the mud and throwing it in their face’ to me, is a metaphor. Starting with nothing, and using just that to rise to the top.”

The release of “OTM” marks the start of a new chapter in Pressa’s career. Focused on delivering new music with a powerful message, Pressa is intent on altering naysaying perceptions and silencing the doubters. “I believe I can do anything I put my mind to, so if I have to go get it out the mud just to throw it in your face to show you I can, that’s what I’m going to do,” says Pressa. Pressa recently had his debut live performance in the U.S. at Rolling Loud Los Angeles 2019, and was just announced as a performer for Rolling Loud Miami 2020 (May 10th) and Rolling Loud Portugal 2020 (July 8-10th). Stay tuned for more performance date announcements.
