The Future is Now is the second single and video from my new album Rasheed Re-imagined. The album and video are officially released here on RasheedMusic.com tomorrow (20 February 2017) but I thought – since the song is called The Future is Now – it might be cool to post the video for tomorrow’s video release right here today.
I very much hope you enjoy the video which was filmed around London’s South Bank last year (late summer if I recall rightly). The video was directed by Marcin Kovacs who also produced all the tracks on Rasheed Re-imagined.
The Future is Now is one of three Remixes on the album. The original version appeared on my last album Lease of Life and was produced by John Hamilton. Here we re-worked the song and I added a tiny bit of new re-worked vocals. It’s funny how life flows, as I listen back to this song I feel it’s apt for the times we are in where at one and there seems lots of change and uncertainty – and how also there is the key importance of being present, mindful and aware that tomorrow is partly a construct of the mind and partly a outcome of all that we have been – and all that we do today.
“Maybe we can make it, baby if we face it, don’t live your life waiting …make peace end all hatred” – Rasheed Ogunlaru, The Future is Now
