Video: Pheave f/ Skooda Chose x Mullet Bodeen – Do Sumthin’ To Us
Directed by Stunna Reese Pheave, Chose and Bodeen go on the hunt for anonymous FSD commenters. This is pretty great. I guess the moral of the story is to think before you fly off the handle in the comments section. They’ve got an eye on ya.
