POSTHUMOUS MUSIC VIDEO FOR THE CHILD OF LOV'S "ONE DAY FT. DAMON ALBARN" EMERGES VIA SPIN
Towards the end of 2013, The Child of Lov passed away at the age of 26. At the time, he had just released his debut album to critical acclaim and was preparing a stage show complete with full band, dancers, costumes, and imagery. Just prior to his passing, a music video for "One Day ft. Damon Albarn" was commissioned for the American director Christine Yuan; however, The Child of Lov would never see the video himself. Yuan had not met him nor did she know about his illness when she made the video but she clued in on the song's lyrics to find inspiration - "Hold me until the morning. Hold me until the morning. One day baby I got to die and I lie down." The Child of Lov was a prolific modern soul man who produced a large amount of work in a variety of mediums during the short time he was active as an artist. His legacy lives on through his music, poetry, and visual art.
