In his signature spirit of defying normal convention, Teezo recorded a low frills, iPhone style video premiering his upcoming music video for “Area Codes,” a song that has yet to officially be released to the general public.

During his initial act, he showcased a candid clip which featured him detailing anecdotes about how he gained inspiration from a fellow artist in the sphere of experimental music, Jean Dawson. He also spoke about how Trippie Redd called him to come to L.A. earlier in his career and what that gesture meant to him.
