On the Run, On the Mic: Antonio Brown Drops Shocking New Video
NFL icon Antonio Brown joins forces with rising rap talent MicMan for the remix of āTwelveā ā a gritty, bass-heavy anthem capturing the paranoia and pressure of moving through life while constantly being watched.
Brown is reportedly on the run from U.S. authorities following an alleged attempted murder incident where he fired a weapon outside a nightclub, claiming self-defense in a potential ambush.
Despite the legal cloud, Brown has kept moving ā literally ā filming his latest music video āTwelveā in Dubai alongside rising rapper MicMan, complete with flashy visuals, luxury backdrops, and studio scenes shot on Brownās birthday.
āTwelveā isnāt just a flex ā itās a warning. Itās the feeling of trying to roll up and ride out while the police are always close behind. The title nods to that ever-present surveillance ā ā12 on my noseā ā and the mindset of staying one step ahead. Heavy with bass and harder with truth, the song captures the lifestyle of those who live fast and move smart.
MicMan explains the meaning behind the track, drawing from real life:
āThe reason I made this song, when I was in high school, me and my friends were rolling up in the car and a police officer rolled up on us. I ended up getting bagged for that and had to go to a bunch of classes. That moment stuck with me. ā12 on my noseā ā thatās real.ā
The collaboration sparked after Brown discovered MicMan through a Blockwork TV post on Instagram.
āHe hit me up and said he liked the song. He was easy to work with, chill energy, and really got in his bag. He was open to making changes and came in ready to build.ā
The āTwelveā video was shot over two days ā including on Brownās birthday ā with in-studio footage and cinematic Dubai lifestyle visuals bringing the lyrics to life.
āWe shot in the studio and the day after, which was his birthday. So we were able to celebrate while creating.ā
The release marks a breakout moment for MicMan, a 24-year-old Montgomery County, MD native with a degree in physics and a minor in entrepreneurship from Towson University. Far from your average rapper, MicMan is building a brand rooted in energy, authenticity, and passion.
āIām super passionate and energy driven, like an energy ball. Youāll always feel it when Iām around ā Iām always on go.ā
His mission as an artist?
āI stand for artistry that is pure. I put my life into my music. Iām here to rejuvenate people ā give them a breath of fresh air. Music is so commercialized now, we donāt appreciate it like we should.ā
MicManās journey hasnāt been without obstacles.
āNew Yearās 2023, I was supposed to have my biggest performance ever. Right before I hit the stage, the police shut the venue down for noise complaints. After that, I promised myself Iād never take a moment for granted. Any shot I get ā Iām taking it.ā
With momentum building, fans can expect more from MicMan very soon:
āEveryoneās tapping in. We definitely have to drop a project.ā
