Currently on the Fresh Air Tour with Brother Ali and Evidence,
Toki Wright
has just dropped the first music video from his full-length Rhymesayers debut
A Different Mirror
. "Devil's Advocate" just saw it's debut on MTV--which also acts as Wright's solo debut on the national station--where it is now acting as the emcee's introduction to many across the nation. Time will tell, but hopefully the momentum surrounding the MPLS veteran's June release will evolve into his own headlining tour in the new year a la Ali. Watch out for Mr. Wright's video in the coming weeks as it continues to get play on MTVU & MTV JAMS. The Fresh Air Tour will continue to travel around the nation until late in November when a pair of shows at First Avenue will cap off the production (Nov. 20/21).
