“This video was built on the hype and importance of the internet. NYC legends and hotspots, twitter personalities, quotes and everything hyped weather good or bad. I was intrigued by this character my friend Ben Solomon had on his avatar and approached him via twitter and email to talk about a concept. He came over an we sketched out a few things and brainstormed. This is the modern day Waldo. Can u spot anyone? #isityou?”

‘Plex Row had a chance to listen to Theophilus’ latest project, and they’re shared their thoughts on it…
“Why Even Try” f/ Sara Quin
Complex says: This is the first song we heard from the album back in January, and it’s been getting spins around the office ever since. Theophilus and Sara from Tegan and Sara go back-and-forth about a girl who tries too hard to be a bad girl even though she’s “never been like that.” The story is great, but the production is the real winner here. When those drums drop a few seconds in, try not to fuck with it. Try.

In this video, we hope to catch a side of the artist that the fans don’t see, perhaps a more humble side, but more than anything a more natural and personal side of the artist.
It’s rather refreshing to see an artist such as Theophilus and his style of sound get the recognition it deserves. Theophilus held serve at Los Angeles’ Key Club to a sold-out audience a few days ago, and Janice was on hand to catch some of the action.
