Watch Kwes Co-Star With Skating Champ in ‘rollerblades’ Video

Kwes has followed last year’s “36” music video with the second official clip for his 2013 debut album, ilp. The new visual once again pairs the SPIN interview subject with director Ian Pons Jewell, who previously lensed Kwes’ 2012 video for “Bashful.” Their latest team-up promotes ilp heartbreaker “rollerblades” and features a guest appearance by roller-skating champion Juan Tocino. As seen above, the piece pivots from a twitchy, suspenseful start to a graceful midsection that lets Tocino show off his skills. Watch through the bummer denouement, then head over to Bleep to purchase ilp, which is out now through Warp Records.
