QUAMI.XYZ SHARES NEW VIDEO FOR “RUNNING AWAY”

Late last year, quami.xyz returned after a two year hiatus with a pair of poignant singles (“Luh Me Weak” and “Running Away”) off of his upcoming EP entitled No One Asked. The latter being an introspective return to form that has quami chronicling his struggles with depression, self-doubt, and perpetual isolation. Today, quami is releasing the self-directed visual for “Running Away”. The video features our troubled protagonist sprinting through an empty city-scape,  on the run from an angry mob who are meant to represent his trauma. These scenes are then intercut and juxtaposed with vignettes that provide a brief sense of calm; an alternate reality and perspective of the protagonist…

“We can call him an R&B artist if only for his frequently soulful, intimate vocals, but his work is broader than that… [No One Asked] is the next chapter of quami.xyz’s refusal to fit into a category as he finds a previously uncharted vehicle for his craft.” – EARMILK
 
“There’s really nothing out there that sounds like this which is always exciting to hear. Keep your eyes open for quami.xyz.”- FASHIONABLY EARLY
 
“It’s soft and delicate, with the warmth of a Daniel Caesar-esque cut meeting the intricacy of something you’d expect from Solange and the soft pulse of The Internet’s more low-key numbers, so you should definitely get around it and get to know him.”-PILERATS
