When we think of summer we think of relaxation. The preview video for “Summer” off Erk Tha Jerk’s upcoming album Nerd’s Eye View shows the opposite: hard work. Erk says, “We had a show on Thursday so we were at the venue until 3am, then we went straight to the airport to go to another show, did soundcheck, went back to the hotel to shower real quick, then did the show, then the afterparty. There’s always work to do, even at an afterparty. It’s not like I sit in the VIP and talk to girls. Whenever I get to a new city, I’ve got to meet the DJ’s, let them know about me, my sound, my single, and then it’s back to the hotel at 3am only to do it all over again the next day.” The video portrays emcee life in an honest and unique light. “No fancy shit,” or girls, or expensive alcohol; instead, Erk shows us what a day in the life of a busy emcee is like. It doesn’t matter if it’s summer or not.

The single features catchy hooks laid over dramatic stringed produced by Erk. He also co-directed the video. Erk works hard because… well, he does everything.
