HoodTrophy Bino - "By Your Side"

Even though Los Angeles-based rapper HoodTrophy Bino has spent most of his budding musical journal breaking generational curses, he pays homage to both the struggles and support systems he’s encountered through his new single, “By Your Side.” 


His award-winning documentary, HoodTrophy Bino, premiered at SXSW this past year and details the young rapper’s adversities as he battled gang life influences, mental illness and a stint in jail. The film set an inspirational, optimistic mission statement for his career — which he extends in this upbeat, trill love letter to his family, daughter and home city. 


On “By Your Side,” HoodTrophy Bino coasts through success, powered by the support of his circle behind him. He asserts his resilient and career-oriented motif, but also doesn’t shy away from his emotional side — “Sometimes I might just cry,” he reflects. 


His unrelenting gratefulness and affection manifests through the track’s music video, where he is shown embracing his young daughter Milliani as family pictures and portraits flash by in montage fashion. We are put in his close circle, witnessing the things that mean most to him and absorbing pieces of his personal family history. One notable feature is a scene where his 86-year-old grandmother, a former Black Panther member, makes a stoic yet powerful appearance. 


The low hum of the bass and gentle piano melody mingles graciously with the quick cymbal pitters of the backing beat, which allows the catchy track to take a reflective, sentimental angle. HoodTrophy Bino is working to achieve his goals, but uplifts his mission statement to his base as well. “I’ll be by your side, as long as you try,” he assures them, with a sureness that he can always expect the same in return.
