In the music video, I’d like to go represent the three different eras of Greek History from my style as we go through the song. There will be the ancient part, which will mostly be focused in the chorus and I wanted it to be me twirling and dancing in a white dress. We have the Rebetiko era which would be in black and white, me lugging around my Tzoura and sitting in the street. Finally, we have the modern era which should be me just spitting bars around the city.

White, flowy dress since that’s what the ancient wore

This is the hill of the muses which are really important to ancient culture and will give me the free flowing vibe I'd like to recreate

Simple but smart button down, with everything all the way down
This park across from the Dionysus Zonar’s restaurant is quite gloomy and fits the vibe of the video

Something with this vibe. Like I feel like this fits me well. I want to to be a bit of 90s since that’s when the Hip-Hop scene really blew up in Greece.
Hip-hop will always have a flashy vibe to it, and being on a balcony right next to the acropolis is pretty flashy.
