The Partnership
The creative partnership between Jacob McCoy and the artist Prolific began with their high-energy collaboration on "The Butters" by Big Zoo, which Prolific co-directed. This initial project established a seamless synergy that they later channeled into the visual for "Honeymoon," a standout track from Prolific's album In The Red. Their shared aesthetic—blending Brooklyn’s raw urban energy with polished, cinematic flair—has defined their joint portfolio and solidified them as a formidable director-artist duo in the independent hip-hop scene.
Beyond their direct musical collaborations, Jacob’s role as a director extended to the track "Ying Yang" on the BLVKC project, further showcasing his ability to translate Prolific’s sonic world into a compelling visual language. The pair is currently pushing their creative boundaries with an upcoming film for the release PerPull, produced in collaboration with Ray Cuts.
This latest venture marks a significant evolution in their partnership, moving from music videos toward a more expansive, long-form narrative style that highlights their growth as multidisciplinary filmmakers.
