Never Call You Bitch Again (Evolution) (video)

This is a video I've just put together as the last promo for Collected Mashups Vol. 1, showcasing an underground classic of mine: Tupac Shakur vs. Cinematic Orchestra featuring Fontella Bass - "Never Call You Bitch Again (Evolution)".


This video was almost finished when the infamous Tupac "hologram" made an appearance at Coachella, but remained on my hard drive for quite a while, perhaps as a sub-conscious protest. Most of the video features images of singer Heidi Vogel, who toured extensively with Cinematic Orchestra, but the original vocals (and audio) are by blues/jazz legend Fontella Bass, who makes a few brief cameos towards the end of the song.
