Michete - "Touch It"

This is probably the most polished music video from Michete to date directed by Kyle Bain. As usual the rap style from Michete is righteous with clever lyrics. During the course of the video the players are assembled at a pharmaceutical warehouse where they are experimenting with what looks like Nickelodeon's Gak. For those of you who don't remember it was a neon colored silly putty and in this video seems to be something of a fetish. Michete even paints her face to accent the bold color of the putty which adds to the visual consistency of the video. 
 
Michete encourages our voyeurism while somehow satirizing the life of a pop star with three simple words, "Look At Me!" Michete is always one to put the prov-oke in the prov-acitive encouraging us again to "Go ahead and touch it." We can safely bet this is a sexual come on as Michete proceeds to make out in her music video with those who are willing to do just that. Overall this is a stellar new addition to the growing library of Michete's work. In this music video Michete calls out her haters and skeptics. I would encourage anyone to start exploring her catalogue and you will see Michete is not just a one-off. Take a gander whenever you are looking for something hard and wild to rock out to.
