Foreign Air’s latest music video for their single “Royalty” (Nettwerk Music Group) strikes a balance between humor and poignant social commentary. The video features the duo, Jesse Clasen and Jacob Michael, dressed in extravagant Victorian attire, performing in stark contrast to their surroundings — an outdoor camper, where casual clothing would seem more fitting.
The juxtaposition of lavish clothing against the modest camper backdrop creates a surreal depiction of ambition, yearning, and the illusion of luxury. Directed by Josh Thomas, the video mirrors the song’s themes of fame, fantasy, and the relentless pursuit of success. “Royalty” offers a timely reflection on the competitive, often delusional world fostered by social media, making its commentary both playful and wistful.
