Thanks to a silky beat from Statik Selektah and Wale's refreshing verse, I praised "So Close, So Far" when it leaked earlier this year. But I still had my gripes with Bun B's flimsy bars and Colin Munroe's clumsy hook, both of which admittedly grew on me with repeated listens. The overall product was still a success, so it makes sense that Statik would link up with director Rik Cordero for the single's visuals. And while Cordero has churned out another crisp, slick video, something about it just doesn't work for me. Perhaps it's the fact that the theme of cheating doesn't really fit into Bun and Wale's socially conscious, uplifting verses.
